SPEED HUMPS PERTH

 

Speed humps have become vital in an ongoing effort to enhance road safety and regulate vehicle speed in sensitive areas.

Unlike their more abrupt counterparts, speed bumps, speed humps are designed with a more gradual rise and fall, making them not only more vehicle-friendly but also highly effective at maintaining controlled speeds over a longer distance.

These features make speed humps an ideal solution for a variety of settings, from residential neighbourhoods to congested school zones and parking areas, where the safety of pedestrians and the reduction of vehicle speed are paramount.

Benefits of Speed Humps

The installation of speed humps brings a multitude of benefits to urban and residential areas, significantly contributing to the overall safety and well-being of communities. Here are some of the key benefits of implementing speed humps:

Reduction in Vehicle Speeds

The primary function of speed humps is slowing traffic, minimising the risk of accidents. Their design necessitates a slower pace, making high-speed driving uncomfortable and impractical. This speed reduction is particularly beneficial in areas of speed limits where children and pedestrians frequent, such as near schools, parks, and residential neighbourhoods.

Enhanced Pedestrian Safety

Speed humps contribute significantly to pedestrian safety by creating safer crosswalks and walking environments. With vehicles moving at lower speeds, pedestrians have more time to cross streets, and drivers have increased reaction times to stop for crossing pedestrians, reducing the likelihood of pedestrian-vehicle collisions.

Versatility in Application

Versatile in their application, speed humps are suitable for various environments and settings and can be adapted to meet specific traffic calming measures. This ultimately ensures the safety and well-being of all road users.

Frequently Asked Questions about Speed Humps

What is the difference between a speed hump and a speed bump?

Speed humps are broader and lower than speed bumps, designed for gradual deceleration and to accommodate a wider range of vehicles. Speed bumps are abrupt and intended for very low-speed areas like car parks.

Do speed humps require a lot of maintenance?

Speed humps are designed to be low-maintenance, especially those made from durable materials like rubber. Regular inspections are recommended to ensure they remain effective and safely secured to the road.

How do I choose the right speed hump for my needs?

To choose the right speed hump, consider your location, traffic volume, and desired speed reduction. Opt for rubber or plastic for durability and flexibility in residential areas, or concrete and asphalt for heavy traffic zones. Ensure compliance with local regulations and assess installation and maintenance requirements. Contact us today to help identify the most suitable option for you.
