Yes, pretty sure it's the right place. The previous hump was removed because it was badly built and kept on breaking oil sumps.
Whilst there was limited sympathy for the speeders affected in this way, it meant that the road was often coated in oil.That caused one local to be badly injured after coming off her bike as a result of an oil slick and another pedestrian to be injured slipping and falling.
Whether we need the hump to be reinstated is another question alltogether.
Another style, used by Islington on Tollington Park Road going towards Stroud Green, is a sinusoidal cross-section rather than the sharp-edged pillow construction of the Ladder roads humps.
It still flexes the vehicle suspension but you don't get the impact vibration of the vehicle tyres hitting the leading edge of the pillow, which is the cause of the building-unfriendly (and nerves-unfriendly) vibration.
Also I think it uses a lot less asphalt to achieve the desired result.
