Case Noted | Thank you for reaching out to us with your issue. We share your concerns about making the City streets safer and we recently revised our speed hump program so that neighborhoods can receive them more quickly. We aim to slow traffic to make every street in the City safer and more comfortable for walking, biking, and rolling. A map is available on boston.gov that shows which streets in the City will receive speed humps during the first three-year phase of construction. We will continue to update the map as new phases of construction are determined. We plan to design and build speed humps in about ten areas each year for the next three years. This is approximately 500 speed humps per year. Unfortunately, stop signs are not installed for speed control, stop signs are for right of way access. If vehicles are parking too close to the corners please open another request to remove parking for sight distance issue. Thank you for contacting 311 and BTD.
