Summary Background:
On February 21, 2024 the City received a petition for traffic calming devices from the residents of the 5600 block of 31st Ave. A public hearing was held October 7, 2024 where the Hyattsville Police and Public Works departments presented their findings, and residents were able to provide comments. Upon further review of the options, it was determined that installation of a speed hump would be an effective measure to reduce speed and calm traffic. Pricing is to be determined, but installation of a single speed hump is typically in the $4,500-$5,500 range.
Next Steps:
Solicit pricing and install speed hump
Fiscal Impact:
Not to exceed $6,000
