The unit makes decisions about local traffic regulations, such as parking bans on certain streets, Göteborgs stad said. One traffic regulator works on ongoing measures for safe school routes, including widening sidewalks, speed bumps, raised crosswalks, and raised pedestrian crossings. Traffic regulators can also implement quick fixes, such as installing a barrier or bollard to stop cars from driving on pedestrian and bicycle paths.
Additionally, they ensure street names are kept up to date based on changed addresses, including changes from the cultural committee's name preparation board. For example, when half of Marconigatan was renamed to Beda Hanssons gata, the traffic regulator placed the order for new signs.
