Not sure if anyone else has noticed the "speed bump" that has appeared at the intersection of Yates Dr. and March Crossing?

Yates Dr. has always been "wavy" running between Bennett Blvd and Thompson Rd, but something has caused a big bump to appear running across Yates right in the middle of this intersection.

Thankfully the fact that it's in the middle of the intersection makes it easy to remember where it is when driving at night/in the rain, but I've seen some people get launched off of the thing when they are going too fast. I'm not sure how a plow is going to deal with that in the winter.

Place your bets: will the Town of Milton fix the road, or just paint it and mark it as a speed bump?

Hopefully the speeders lose control of their cars and total them. As long as no one gets hurt of course. Im not mean.

I agree, they need to fix this. Even going below the limit at 30 or 40 you still hit that bump pretty hard. I'm sure a few people with lower cars have scraped fenders. And now that most people know its there, people go around it into the other lane, which is fine, except that everyone seems to park on road on this street, which makes its busy enough, to have to avoid the dip in the road in addition to dealing with the people don't don't yield to traffic traveling towards Thomson.
