Impact of Speed Hump on Capacity & LOS
 Speed humps are common traffic calming
technique that is being used in several cities allover
the world.
 The main objective of speed humps is to reduce the
speed of the traffic.
 However, it has serious impact over the overall
capacity of the approach.

Impact of Speed Hump on Capacity & LOS
Operational Case: Existing Facility
Example:
Study the Effect of adding a speed hump on LOS and
the Overall capacity of the following approach.
Input:
Number of Lanes = 3
Lane Width= 3.4
Median = Yes
Shoulders = 0.6
Traffic Volume = 1275
Topography (i.e. Terrain: Level /Rolling/ Mountainous)
HV% = 12% PHF = 0.9 , Access points = 6 acc. Pt. /km
Observed Speed = 70 km/hr ,
