We install speed tables on private streets, HOA roads, school driveways, university-adjacent residential, and commercial campuses across Eugene, Springfield, and Lane County. A speed table is a flat-topped raised crossing — typically 18 to 22 feet long, with 6-foot ramps on each end and an 8 to 12-foot flat top in the middle. That flat top often carries a pedestrian crosswalk, so the table doubles as a speed-calming device and a pedestrian-priority crossing. ITE Traffic Calming Manual sets the dimensions; FHWA MUTCD §3B sets the signage and pavement markings.
Below: the Eugene-area neighborhoods we cover, the City of Eugene traffic-calming process, and our standard service scope.
A speed table is a single elongated raised crossing, distinct from a speed bump (3 feet wide along travel) or speed hump (12 feet wide). The flat top accommodates pedestrian crossings and reduces the abrupt impact of bumps and humps. The longer ramps and lower-rise grade are easier on emergency apparatus and bus traffic than speed humps.
ITE Traffic Calming Manual table specs:
Eugene has dense residential streets near University of Oregon, established neighborhoods (West University, Friendly, South Hills), and walkable commercial corridors (Willamette, 11th, Pearl). Speed tables address three Eugene-specific needs:
The Cojo crew installed a single speed table on a private street serving a Friendly-neighborhood apartment complex in March 2026. The table was 20 feet long with a 10-foot flat top and a striped ladder-pattern crosswalk on the flat top. The complex had documented 32 mph average speeds on the 25-mph private street; post-install, average speeds dropped to 18 mph.

Three layers of code apply:
For city streets in Eugene, the public-works traffic-calming process includes neighborhood petition, traffic study, and Council approval. Most Cojo speed-table work is on private streets, HOAs, apartment driveways, and school drives where the property owner has authority to install but coordinates with Eugene-Springfield Fire (which serves both cities).
Standard scope:

| HOA private street | 1 to 3 tables | 20-foot asphalt-bonded |
| Apartment complex driveway | 1 to 2 tables | 18-foot rubber modular |

| UO-adjacent private | 1 to 3 tables | 20-foot asphalt-bonded with crosswalk |
| Healthcare campus access | 2 to 4 tables | 22-foot asphalt-bonded |
| Industrial campus pedestrian | 1 to 2 tables | 20-foot asphalt-bonded |
| Component | Industry Baseline Range |
|---|---|
| Asphalt-bonded speed table | $3,500 to $8,000 each |
| Rubber modular speed table | $2,500 to $5,500 each |
| Layout / engineering review | $400 to $1,200 |
| MUTCD W17-1 or W11-2 sign (installed) | $200 to $500 each |
| Ladder-pattern crosswalk striping | $300 to $600 |
| Single-table project total | $4,200 to $10,000 |
Eugene-area pricing tracks Willamette Valley regional pricing. Asphalt material costs rose 10 to 14 percent in 2025. Rubber modular formulations rose 15 to 25 percent. Add 5 to 10 percent for prevailing-wage city, county, and Lane Community College projects.
Asphalt-bonded speed tables need temperatures above 50 degrees F for reliable adhesion and 24-hour dry weather for cure. The reliable install window in Eugene runs April through October. Rubber modular tables can install year-round but freezing temperatures slow anchor cure times.
Cojo installs speed tables to ITE Traffic Calming Manual specs and MUTCD §3B markings across Eugene, Springfield, and Lane County. We coordinate with Eugene-Springfield Fire on private-street and HOA projects. Contact Cojo for a Eugene speed-table quote, or read our speed tables guide for the full product overview.
