Abstract:

Pavement marking is an essential component of roadway construction and safety. The markings need to be visible ; (day and night) so that drivers can quickly identify where the markings are and determine what message is being ; defined. Good pavement marking provides critical elements to guide drivers on correct road paths, complement ; road signs that inform and warn drivers, and improve night driving conditions. ; This project’s objective was to review existing pavement marking practices by local agencies in Minnesota ; (material selection, installation, specifications, and contracting procedures) to provide guidance for maintaining ; good pavement markings, thereby saving money and increasing road safety. The two specific objectives were as ; follows: ; 1. Review existing pavement marking practices in local agencies. ; 2. Develop recommendations for better management of pavement marking through the use of pavement ; marking management tools and coordination with the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT).
