Residents on Clinton Street are frustrated by frequent speeding on their street endangering pedestrians and cyclists. They have requested the installation of speed humps, which Transportation Services agree would be feasible, with a substantial number of residents signing a petition in support. Several streets in the surrounding area have benefited from the traffic calming effects of speed humps, and residents are eager to see them installed on Clinton Street.
