Speed Hump Construction

What This Service Involves

Traffic-calming devices reduce vehicle speeds where pedestrians, children, and cyclists share the corridor. We construct asphalt speed humps and tables to the profile and dimensions your traffic-calming standard specifies, ensuring predictable performance for both drivers and emergency vehicles. Placement accounts for drainage so the hump does not dam the gutter line. Advance markings and signage are installed so the device is visible and enforceable.

Benefits

Reduces vehicle speeds in sensitive corridors; built to the agency traffic-calming profile; drainage preserved along the gutter line; markings and signage for visibility and enforcement; improves safety for pedestrians and cyclists

Our Process

1) Confirm the location, profile, and drainage impacts; 2) Clean and tack the pavement footprint; 3) Place and shape the hump or table to profile; 4) Compact, then install markings and warning signage

What Affects the Cost

Number and type of devices; profile dimensions and materials; drainage accommodations; markings and signage packages; traffic control during construction

Best Time of Year

Speed humps are placed in warm, dry weather so the asphalt compacts to the precise profile that calming performance depends on.
