The Johannesburg Roads Agency has simplified the process for residents to request speed humps and other traffic calming measures.
Residents can now submit petitions through the city's online E-petition portal to initiate the process.
The JRA will then assess the petition and determine the suitability of the area for traffic calming measures based on criteria as outlined in the South African Road Traffic Signs Manual and the City of Johannesburg's Traffic Policy.
The Roads Agency highlighted that it will prioritize traffic installations based on factors such as community needs and available funding.
