Traffic Safety Division

Joe Schoen, City Engineer

Overview

Traffic Safety provides a broad range of activities associated with traffic signs, signals, pavement markings, and traffic studies to improve and help maintain a safe transportation network within the City of Gillette. The division is responsible for:

  • fabrication, installation, maintenance, and inventory of all the regulatory, warning and informational traffic signing in the city
  • the operation, maintenance, and inspection of all traffic signals within the city
  • maintenance, upkeep, and contract administration of the pavement markings and street striping in the city
  • review of signing, signals, and pavement markings for public and development projects
  • routine traffic studies as required by the City Engineer

Requests for a traffic signal, sign, or crosswalk should be made to the City Engineer. We may then decide to do a traffic study to see whether it is warranted. To let us know of a request, email us.

Roadside Memorial Program
The City of Gillette will install a memorial sign free of charge for anyone killed in a traffic crash on a city-maintained street if the sign is requested in writing by the victim's immediate family. Click here(PDF, 285KB) for more information.
