Abstract :
- The number of fatalities from traffic accidents is
steadily rising at an alarming rate. However, this has been
linked to bad road conditions, drunk driving, excessive
speeding, disobeying traffic laws, and irresponsible or
reckless behaviour on the part of road users. To avoid this
ugly experience, several measures have been implemented
over time, including traffic calming measures. Speed
arrestor is essential for enforcing speed limits, deterring
vehicle overspending and preventing incidents that could
result in injuries, deaths, and vehicle damage to improve
overall road safety. This study analyses the relevant articles
to explore the construction of speed bumps on west African
road infrastructure. The study's findings indicated that
speed arrestors exhibit both positive and negative
characteristics. To maximize the potential,
recommendations were made.
