Traffic calming measures can be divided into two types, volume control devices and speed control devices. In some applications, a traffic calming device will control both speed and volume. For instance, cut through traffic might be discouraged (causing a volume reduction) if it is required to proceed at a slower speed while negotiating calming devices.
