Abstract

Rumble areas are patches of rough, coarse road surface which are designed to produce aural and tactile stimuli inside the vehicle with the intention of alerting drivers and when desirable, causing them to slow down. This report gives the results of an assessment of the effectiveness of rumble strips/areas used at 35 sites around the UK.
