Speed Bumps London — Supply & Installation Across London

Barriers Co supplies rubber speed bumps, asphalt speed humps and speed cushions to London's highways authorities, private landowners and businesses. Compliant with the Highways (Road Humps) Regulations 1999 and TfL Streetscape Guidance. We deliver to all London postcodes with next-day delivery available.

London Speed Bumps — The Regulatory Framework

Speed bumps on public highways in London are governed by the Highways (Road Humps) Regulations 1999, made under Section 90 of the Highways Act 1980. Public road humps require authorisation by either Transport for London (for the TfL Road Network) or the relevant London Borough Council. The Mayor of London's Transport Strategy supports traffic calming under Vision Zero — eliminating all deaths and serious injuries on London's roads by 2041.

For private roads, car parks, residential estates and private land, speed bumps can typically be installed without planning permission or Traffic Management Orders — making rubber speed bumps a cost-effective quick solution.

London's 20mph Zone Speed Bump Programme

London is a global leader in 20mph speed limit implementation. Over half of London Borough roads now have 20mph speed limits, many supported by physical traffic calming including speed bumps and humps. London Boroughs at the forefront of 20mph implementation — Islington, Hackney, Southwark, Lambeth, Waltham Forest — have used speed humps extensively in their Local Safety Schemes. We work with Borough Highways engineers providing technical specs meeting the Highways (Road Humps) Regulations dimensional requirements: maximum 100mm height on 20mph roads, 75mm on 30mph roads.

London Car Park Speed Bumps

London's hundreds of multi-storey and surface car parks — operated by NCP, Q-Park, APCOA, Parking Eye and London Borough councils — frequently require speed control measures. Our rubber speed bumps and speed humps are ideal for car park environments, available in 50mm, 75mm and 100mm heights, in standard black-and-yellow finishes, pre-drilled for bolt-down installation on asphalt or concrete.

School Streets Speed Bumps

London has pioneered the School Streets initiative — restricting motorised traffic on roads outside schools during drop-off and pick-up times. Many School Street schemes are complemented by permanent speed reduction measures. We work with London Borough Council transport teams to specify appropriate traffic calming products for school zones across all London areas.

Crossrail & Elizabeth Line — Speed Bump Legacy

The Elizabeth Line project created extensive surface-level diversionary routes across Central and East London, many requiring temporary speed control measures. We supplied speed bumps for contractor site compounds and diversionary route traffic management during Elizabeth Line construction, and continue to supply for related public realm improvements.
