- Hawley Avenue (200, 300 and 400 block)

These bumps are being installed as part of Syracuse’s Speed Hump Pilot Program, which aims to study the impacts of speed bumps on driver behavior.
For the past two years, Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh has added new speed bumps in residential areas and city streets to slow down drivers and keep families and children safe from speeding cars.
