Speed Humps are the most cost effective solution to controlling and managing risk. They provide a safe environment for both the public and staff, and they minimize costly staff down time, insurance claims and costly legal battles.
Where can speed humps be installed?
Speed humps are permitted on local streets in residential areas where the speed limit is 25 mph. However, speed humps are not permitted:
On streets where drainage water flows down the center of the street
On streets regularly used by buses, trucks, or emergency vehicles
Within 200 feet of a STOP or YIELD sign
On streets dust proofed with Bituminous Surface Treatment (BST) or on alleys
On or near steep grades or sharp curves
