Traffic Safety Unit

Traffic complaints are frequently the most reported complaints made to the Police Department and City Alderpersons. The Appleton Police Department is committed to the safe travels of all motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists.

The Traffic Safety Unit was created with the goal of increasing traffic enforcement, reducing traffic crashes, reducing property damage and preventing injury and death on Appleton’s roadways. The Traffic Safety Unit uses a data driven approach for traffic enforcement. Data analytics from crash data, citizen complaints and speed studies are used to identify traffic emphasis area.

Each month, a Traffic Safety Report is created by the unit. This report contains traffic enforcement and crash data from the previous month. The report also contains the data collected from speed studies and areas of emphasis that are identified through citizen complaints. The Appleton Police Department can use the information contained in the report to direct enforcement efforts to meet the aforementioned goals.
