Have all the speed bumps/humps/tables you want - just mark them with a color differential and have signs alerting drivers…. No one likes a big surprise!!

I'll lobby for one. It will be preferable to risking my life walking to the mailbox, or down the road. To V Saleme and others who commute in town for kids, groceries, etc, the speed deterrents will be well known to you; your car won't be damaged if you are going the recommended speed. No one flies down Winter Street. We'll all just add a few moments to the errands or the commute, and in doing so make our roads much safer for walkers, bicyclists, dogs, children...

Speed tables are low and flat and thus much easier on suspensions and ears. I don’t believe anyone is proposing speed bumps rather than speed tables. Here is a nice description of speed tables: https://nacto.org/publication/urban-street-design-guide/street-design-elements/vertical-speed-control-elements/speed-table/ Please do not be put off by the words “urban” and “city”. Formal roadway documentation tends to distinguish between “highway” and city/urban rather than urban and country.

Speed bumps are extremely noisy for those houses unfortunate enough to "win" the speed bump placement lottery. One strongly opposed resident's view. -andy-- The LincolnTalk mailing list.
