The Importance of Speed Bumps for Traffic Control
Controlling Vehicle Speed
Speed bumps are often necessary to keep vehicles at a safe traffic speed in your parking lots. In particular, you should use them on long straight stretches, around pedestrian crossings, and in areas where speeding tends to occur. Furthermore, speed bumps direct a driver’s attention back to the surroundings, which significantly increases situational awareness.
Custom Concrete Speed Bumps
We can create concrete speed bumps to meet your exact specifications on both concrete and asphalt surfaces. Specifically, our process involves cutting into the existing pavement and drilling holes for rebar. Because we integrate the new rebar with the existing slab, the speed bump stays securely in place for a long time. This method ensures the installation moves naturally with the soil and withstands heavy daily use.
Synthetic and Rubber Speed Bump Options
Plastic, rubber, and synthetic speed bumps are popular alternatives because they are generally less expensive and faster to install. These pre-manufactured units come in different lengths, widths, and designs to fit your needs. While these materials do not last as long as concrete, they are easier to remove or relocate if your traffic patterns change in the future.
Integrating Other Safety Devices
In conjunction with speed bumps, our customers often install wheel stops and bollards to maximize protection. Wheel stops prevent cars from pulling too far forward into sidewalks or walls. Similarly, bollards protect building entrances and loading docks. By combining these elements with fresh parking lot striping, you can create a safe environment for all visitors.
