Letters-Gobbi Street ‘hump’ a joke

To the Editor:

“Take out the Gobbi Street hump!” It seems that there has now been adequate time to assess the Gobbi Street Hump “experiment.”

    (1) Inadequate warning.  The original poorly chosen white stripes were never enough to warn of the totally unexpected height of the hump. (Now worn off in six months.)  The changing of the warning sign from “bump” to “hump” was a joke.  I doubt that “Street Hump” is mentioned in the DMV manual.

    (2) Totally unexpected height.  Nowhere in the 50 states would you find a Hump of this height on a major city corridor.  In a residential neighborhood, yes; but never on a city street expected to move major traffic smoothly.  Gobbi is one of the only two streets with signage and exit ramps from Highway 101 into Ukiah.  Certainly, that makes Gobbi a major city corridor.

    The Hump is, of course, nothing but someone’s memorial to the Great Redwood Rail Trail.

    As the warning signs of the “Hump” deteriorate and traffic congestion increases, will the city do anything to improve the situation?  As I write this, I’m reminded that “You can’t fight city hall”.  (“Regulations”.)

    Has anyone on the City Council driven Gobbi and experienced the hump?  I think this issue deserves to be put on the Council agenda.
