They are dangerous as kids use them as Ramos for bikes and skateboards in a bloody road

Pointless waste of funds that should be used to fix the roads.

Speed bumps prove to be a painful obstacle for anyone suffering from injuries - a friend who broke her arm found it to be detrimental

I hate being overtaken on them and vans getting so close behind, you’re not sure if they’re about to hit you.

The original speed bumps in this location were high and journeys were much improved during the period after their removal; the replacement bumps are even worse! They are a hazard to cars and painful for those who suffer with back or hip problems. My daughter also uses this road when driving a horse box and, even slowing to a crawl, causes distress to her horse. It is ridiculous to have a speed limit of 30mph for this section of road and yet have speed bumps that necessitate a maximum speed of 10mph.

Far too high, need to be removed, I pay council tax to maintain/improve local services, not to have it paid out to motorists for unnecessary damage to their cars !

It seems stupid that for all the advancements in technology in all areas of life, this is still considered the best way of slowing traffic. It increases air pollution, noise pollution, wear and tear on vehicles and in this case directly causes damage to them. Remove asap!

Concur with all comments, no requirement for these at this location. Only yesterday I was overtaken by a Honda 4x4 as I was trying to negotiate the speed bump at a safe speed. That type of action negates any safety aspect or reasoning for them to be there in the first place. I also feel very sorry for people who live near these monstrosities. The extra noise caused by vehicles crashing over them must be terrible. Rant over. Please remove them ASAP!

These are speed bumps are ridiculously high! Damage to my vehicle will be imminent. I've already had to change my front springs thanks to these. Please remove and if speed is an issue invest in something user friendly.

These are daft. No need to be done and they pose a huge risk. One day somebody is going to get hurt on this bend and it will be due to these as they are too high and steep
