Meeting Notes

UPDATE: 5/1 Chesterfield County Communication on Speed Cushions

Chesterfield County conducted a survey to determine if your community supports the installation of speed cushions on Pocono Drive. The community reached the 50% acceptance threshold to support the installation of speed cushions, and the Board of Supervisors approved the installation at their April 22, 2026 board meeting.

The next step is the installation. Traffic will be reduced to one lane at a time during installation. Construction should be completed in less than one day and is anticipated to occur in the May/June timeframe, weather dependent. A speed study will be conducted one year after installation to determine the effectiveness of speed cushions.

Please reach out to the department at (804) 748-1560 or trafficcalming@chesterfield.gov with any questions or concerns.
