Effect of speed hump characteristics on pavement condition
Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2017 Speed humps are the most common type of traffic calming devices due to their low cost and easy installation. However, in many Egyptian roads, considerable number of these humps is randomly placed without proper engineering studies and justifications ...

Critical Analysis of Speed Hump and Speed Bump and Geometric Design of Curved Speed Hump
Transportation Research Procedia, 2020 Abstract The motive of this study is to critically analyze speed humps and bumps on various accounts such as travel time delays, mileage reductions, exhaust emissions and propose a new traffic calming device, which can retain the positive impacts of speed humps and also reduce the disadvantages associated with them.

Analysis of Speed Hump Effect on Signalized Intersection Performance [PDF]
Port Said Engineering Research Journal, 2021 Intersections have primary importance in urban networks because most of travel time is wasted at the intersection specially signalized category. Popular solutions of intersection control need to use artificial objects such as speed hump or signals.

Effect of Speed Humps on Ambulance Delay
Cureus, 2023 Speed humps allow vehicles to slow down their speeds, but they also cause emergency vehicles to waste time on their way to their destinations. The study aims to determine the delay times alone and queue delay time of ambulances passing through speed humps.Three types of ambulances (Van, Multiple Victim Assistance, Bariatric) and vehicles (Truck, Lorry,
