Abstract:This project was established to provide a means of conducting small-scale research activities on an as-needed
basis so that the results could be available within months of starting the specific research. This report
summarizes the research activities that were conducted between September 2009 and August 2010. There
were five primary activities and five secondary activities. The five primary activities were: studying the
impact of using high brightness retroreflective sign sheeting in rural areas, synthesizing the technologies
available to potentially automate no-passing zone markings, providing hurricane evacuation support for the
Corpus Christi District, monitoring lead-free thermoplastic pavement marking test decks, and demonstrating
daytime and nighttime operations of traffic signs supplemented with light emitting diodes. In addition, the
researchers also provided support for specification revisions, prototype traffic control device evaluations,
technical support for Traffic Operations Division, and initiated a study on contrast pavement markings.
