Speed table too high/creating vibrations

Reported via desktop in the Highways Obstructions category anonymously at 17:44, Tuesday 15 October 2024

Sent to Hackney Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6619057.

Prior patching ofexit point to reduce vibrations eastbound traffic cause hasn’t addressed problems of significant vibration when heavy vehicles exit. TFL also confirmed the speed table exit is too high, so request survey of table design/effectiveness.

  • Hello, I would like an update to this please. Speeding of heavy vehicles, particularly through quiet periods and at night continues to create very significant vibrations and damage. This is not the first time I have reported the issue, and remedial action (re maintainence) has not solved the issue of poorly designed and ineffective speed management through the intersection.

  • Thank you for your report. We are carrying-out our own investigations to determine exactly what is happening and what the cause could be before we can consider any remedial action.

    If there are defects that need to be addressed we will take them up as part of our maintenance programme.

  • Hello can I get an update please. Vibrations are getting much worse again with each passing bus/truck exiting from the speed table to normal road.

  • Thank you for your comments. Our engineer has visited the site, and after an inspection has been carried through, the layout of the table is correct and up to the standards. We passed it on to another team to investigate the vibrations.

  • Thank you. Is it possible to get a copy of the report emailed. I’d like to also understand the reviewed effectiveness of it - because vibrations are mostly caused by trucks and buses who are unaffected red by the speed table design and thus creates high speed impacts exiting. This is particularly true for those exiting in an east direction
