What Is a Speed Bump?


Speed bumps are raised portions of paved roadways that are designed to slow down traffic. These structures can be used to reduce travel speeds between 2 and 10 miles per hour.

They are commonly found on residential streets, parking lots, and even in pedestrian zones. Generally, speed bumps are installed on narrow, one-lane roads or driveways.

Speed humps are not used on main routes, bus lines, or emergency response routes. Speed humps are also not commonly used in retail parks and other areas where noise is a concern.

When considering installing speed humps, it is important to know the laws and regulations surrounding their use. You may also need to update your insurance policy. If you live in a condominium or planned unit development, you can ask your HOA management company for advice on the appropriate installation of the device.

Some residents in a community may be concerned about the possible negative impact of speed bumps. This may include noise pollution, injuries, or other liabilities. However, speed humps can help make traffic safer for all road users.

In fact, many cities have made use of speed humps in their cities. Mansfield, Connecticut, for instance, has used them extensively, as has Stamford.

Although speed humps are useful in certain situations, their effectiveness depends on the particular road design and its traffic volume. Speed humps are not always the best choice, especially on arterial and emergency routes.

In addition to speed humps, another common traffic calming device is speed cushions. These are pre-shaped, bolted down, rubber products.
