Traffic calming is the use of physical measures to control vehicle speed. Traffic calming aims to maintain safe environments for both drivers and pedestrians. Having the correct traffic calming measure in place slows vehicles and reduces the risk of accidents.

Traffic calming may include a collection of devices, including signage, ground markings or speed bumps.

What is a Traffic Calming Measure?

A traffic calming measure is a bump or hump used to slow vehicles down. The sharp bump caused by the traffic calmer deters drivers from speeding. By controlling vehicle speed overall risk of accidents is reduced.

A speed cushion or speed table will provide a less severe bump. These measures allow traffic to flow at a reasonable speed, ideal for urban settings like towns or cities.

Do Traffic Calming Measures work?

Traffic calming measures work very well. Studies have shown that they not only slow vehicle traffic drastically, they also reduce the severity of accidents if they occur.

Where is traffic calming needed?

Traffic calming is needed where there is an immediate danger to pedestrians. The measures aim to reduce speed on the approach to built up areas. They are usually installed in towns and cities, reducing the speed of vehicles with high volumes of pedestrians in the area.

What traffic calming measure to use?

The most popular traffic calming measure is a speed ramp in the road. The physical bump caused to drivers is enough to deter them from speeding in an area. Kerb extensions and road markings can also be used to funnel vehicles towards the bump or ramp.

At Pittman we have various traffic calming measures available including traffic calming rumble strips and traffic calming humps.

The XPT-50 Speed Bump Kit 50mm is made from the toughest vulcanised rubber and provides the ultimate solution for longevity and durability while in use.
