>That's why the ones in Providence have gaps. They're called speed "humps" or "cushions." The channels allow emergency vehicles to take them at speed.

The OP said "speed bumps". You're talking about something different.

The only place I’ve seen solid speed bumps that go all the way across the road in Providence is in Elmwood, all of the new ones I’ve seen go up in the past few years (Knight St, Chalkstone, Dexter) are designed with breaks in them so they don’t slow emergency vehicles. Where else are you seeing the full speed bumps in the city?
