Speed Control Humps

It is important to recognise that there
should be a normal maximum speed of
operation over such devices that is
consistent with ensuring the long term
durability of vehicles. On this basis it is
recommended that a
traverse speed of 15 mph is not
exceeded over speed humps.
Where vehicles are consistently driven
over traffic calming devices at speeds
in excess of this limit then the long term
durability of the vehicle may be
adversely affected.
