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.
