With rising demand for more road humps at various places in the city, Police Commissioner T.R. Suresh said a feasibility study will be carried out.
During the weekly phone-in programme on Friday, Mr. Suresh said new road humps will be laid only at places that necessary places.
“We cannot lay new road humps everywhere. A feasibility study will be done before recommending new road humps and road studs,” he said.
A caller from Bejai sought a road hump on the Kodailguttu Cross Road to prevent over-speeding of vehicles. He also said there should be proper signages to indicate road humps.
A resident from Pandeshwar felt the need for a road hump near the entrance gate of Forum Fiza Mall in Pandeshwar.
Mr. Suresh said the police may consider having a pedestrian crossing instead of a road hump, which was already in place near Mangaluru south police station.
A resident of Paduva highlighted the problem caused to motorists owing to parking of vehicles that dropped students to school located off the national highway. Though the institution has enough space, vehicles were not allowed inside. She also wanted police to restore the bus shelter at Paduva Circle that was removed for a proposed truck terminal.
Mr. Suresh asked Assistant Commissioner of Police (Traffic) K. Tilakchandra to look into the issue.
