Costello Lane Correction

STN-2

Observation

Curbs on tight street corners in Spanish Town are crushed by garbage and other trucks.

Discussion

The worst instance is at the southern end of Costello Lane, where both corners are crushed. A roll-over curb is needed that would be unpleasant for cars to drive over, but usable and resistant to trucks.

Recommendation

As curbs are scheduled for repair, the city should replace these curbs with a roll-over design made of three inch 90-psi blocks.

Responsibility
