Speed Hump

Flexiwall “speed hump” is a raised, physical traffic-calming device placed on roads or streets to reduce vehicle speeds. Speed humps are designed to encourage drivers to slow down as they approach and pass over them. They are commonly used in areas where speed control is a concern, such as residential neighborhoods, school zones, and other places where pedestrian safety is a priority.

Rubber Speed Hump

Flexiwall speed humps are elevated, physical barriers strategically placed on roadways to mitigate excessive vehicle speeds. These traffic-calming devices are engineered to induce drivers to decelerate as they approach and traverse their contours. Commonly implemented in residential neighborhoods, school zones, and other areas where pedestrian safety is a paramount concern, speed humps contribute significantly to creating a safer and more pedestrian-friendly environment.

Materials:

  • Rubber: Flexible, durable, and provides good impact absorption.
  • Recycled plastic: Environmentally friendly option, often used for its durability.
  • Asphalt: Integrated into the road surface for a seamless appearance.
  • Concrete: Durable but less common due to its rigidity.

 

Load-bearing capacity:

  • Designed to withstand heavy loads, including buses and trucks.
  • Typically tested to meet specific load-bearing standards.

 

Performance Specifications

Speed reduction:

  • Studies have shown speed reductions of 10-20% in areas with speed humps.
  • Effective in calming traffic in residential areas and school zones.

 

Impact on traffic flow:

  • Generally minimal impact on traffic flow at typical speeds.
  • May cause minor delays at higher speeds.

 

Safety:

  • Reduces the severity of accidents by lowering impact speeds.
  • Proper design and installation are crucial for safety.

 

Durability:

  • Rubber and plastic speed humps typically have a lifespan of 10-15 years.
  • Asphalt and concrete speed humps can last longer with proper maintenance.
