Sacramento approves 90 new speed lumps to slow drivers, improve neighborhood safety

Sacramento is investing more than $500,000 to install 90 new speed lumps on 24 neighborhood streets in an effort to reduce crashes and protect pedestrians. The City Council approved the project as part of its Vision Zero program, which aims to eliminate traffic deaths. Councilmembers Lisa Kaplan and Caity Maple highlighted high-risk areas in North Natomas and Oak Park, where crashes have damaged homes and taken lives. Supporters, including Slow Down Sacramento, say the move marks a major step toward safer, slower streets.
