Speed Bump

Speedbumper – The robust rubber coating for road safety

Speed bumps in public roads are subject to the regulations of the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVO). They must be installed where traffic calming is necessary and appropriate, e.g., in residential areas, school zones, or near kindergartens. Specific regulations apply to public spaces and must be observed, such as the maximum height of 50 mm.

Road Traffic Regulations:

Traffic calming: Speed bumps serve to calm traffic and reduce speed.

Public space:

Speed bumps in public spaces require a permit.

Traffic signs: It is mandatory to place the traffic signs "Uneven road surface" (VZ 112) and "Maximum permissible speed" (VZ 274) near the speed bump.

Maximum height: The maximum height should not exceed 50 mm.

Spacing: It is recommended to choose a sufficient distance between the speed bumps to allow driving over them at low speed.



Additional Information:

The German Road Traffic Regulations (StVO) do not contain specific provisions for the design of speed bumps, but there are recommendations regarding their height, spacing, and the placement of traffic signs. When installing speed bumps on private property, property rights and the interests of neighbors should be taken into account. It is advisable to consult the relevant traffic authority before installing speed bumps in public spaces.

Variants & Modularity:

• Start/end pieces: 150 mm wide, one each for the beginning and end of the threshold

• Center sections: 400 mm wide – ideal for connecting together for longer applications

• Various options can be combined for flexible project sizes.

Applications & Benefits

• Effective speed reduction: 50 mm height ensures significant braking of vehicles – ideal for safe driving areas.

• Flexible configuration: Plug-in or adhesive system allows for quick assembly and adjustable threshold lengths.

• Good visibility: High-contrast yellow warning fields increase perception – better protection for pedestrians and vehicles.

• Weatherproof & durable: Robust against UV, oil, salt and temperature influences – long-lasting even under heavy use.

Areas of application

• Parking lots and access roads

• Company and factory premises

• Temporary construction site barrier

• Family areas (e.g., in residential properties) with traffic calming measures
