DETROIT (WWJ) -- More speed humps are coming to Detroit roads, and you can find out ahead of time if your street is included on the list.
The City of Detroit Department of Public Works (DPW) announced the speed hump program list for 2022. Residents who want to opt out have until Apr. 27 to do so.
Speed humps that were approved last year were never installed because of ongoing utility or resurfacing work, said DPW. Those will be among the first on the list this year.
You can check this map to see all of the approved locations through 2021.
DPW has received more than 20,000 speed hump requests from residents, and has proposed more than 2,700 on streets that qualify.
