They <br />provide shorter pedestrian crossing distances <br />and provide protection to the beginning of a <br />parking lane. The driver also senses the roadway <br />narrowing when approaching one of these <br />measures, which can result in speed reduction <br />and a reminder that the driver is entering a <br />residential area. <br />Source: institute of Transportation Engineers <br />Traffic Calming: State of Practice <br />APRIL 2005 <br />25 <br />
