You know....

for as much as people HATE potholes for fucking up our cars, maybe this is exactly what needs to be placed there. Strategically placed holes that are of a certain size so that if cars try to run through, their tires fall in and they get stuck

Not a bad idea at all. Hard to steal or vandalize a hole.

Ridge avenue south bound just past Girard Ave has s literal trench across the lane. It is the best traffic calming I've seen and cost the city nothing.

I would actually advocate for a concrete barrier the entire way. The danger to pedestrians is real especially given how fast people drive on that road.

Well installed bollards should stop a 50 mph car and are a lot less ugly than a concrete
Wall IMO.

Concrete barrier is safer for cars because hitting a bollard at speed will fuck you up.

Fair enough. Bollards with a chain would look pretty nice there. Good call.

If someone manages to put the time and effort into actually removing an in-ground structural bollard, they've earned that bollard
