EVALUATION OF ROAD HUMPS ---A REPORT ON THE ONE-DAY CONFERENCE ON TRAFFIC ENGINEERING 1987

EVALUATIE VERKEERSDREMPELS

The Dutch study center for traffic engineering has made recommendations for a sinus layout for a road hump. This was done in 1979. It is shown however that this drop form is not applied everywhere. The hump caters for a driving speed of 30 km/hour, the speed for which this hump was developed. Effective designs for other driving speeds are required. In this paper other designs of road humps are described as they are related to aspects of traffic safety, public works, costs etc. For the covering abstract of this conference see IRRD 818031.
