Detroit expanding speed hump program to 312 new locations in 2026

Detroit plans to install 312 new speed humps in 2026 as part of its ongoing efforts to address speeding and improve safety on residential streets, bringing the total since 2016 to over 11,400 citywide. While some residents believe the speed humps are effective in slowing traffic, others remain skeptical about their impact on reckless driving. Streets prioritized for installation are typically near schools and parks, and residents have the option to opt out by April 24 if they do not want speed humps on their block.
