ROAD HUMPS

Early day motion 53, tabled 17 May 2005 by Lord Mann (Labour). Signed by 14 members.

That this House believes that the cushion style road hump is of a flawed design, allowing motorbikes to pass through the centre and being more uncomfortable to traverse at 10 mph than at 60 mph; notes that most disabled friendly buses, many fire engines, police cars, ambulances and hearses cannot straddle these road humps; further notes that on-street parking totally undermines the design principles of cushion road humps; and calls for cushion road humps to be banned throughout the country and replaced with sensible, effective traffic calming measures.

Signatures by party: Labour 8, Liberal Democrat 3, Conservative 2, DUP 1.
