Berkeley Bump Bungle?

bump-signs-0609.jpg


The residents of Berkeley Place between 7th and 8th Avenues in Park Slope are beside themselves over the appearance this week of four two brand-spankin'-new speed bumps, with eight bright "BUMP" signs to match. Didn't know there was a speeding problem on that block? Either did the folks who live there. In fact, the person who sent in this photo said she had heard that the bumps were actually supposed to go on Lincoln Place to slow traffic outside the Berkeley Carroll School but that there was some kind of mix up at DOT. Whoops. Update: A reader is claiming that there was bungle after all and that Berkeley was the rightful recipient of both bumps.
