• Abstract:
  In July 2004 the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published notice of a proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register on maintaining the retroreflectivity of traffic signs. The public has until February 1, 2005 to review and comment on proposed changes to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), which will incorporate new methods for maintaining traffic sign retroreflectivity. ; Even though ODOT inspects and manages the inventory of signs, how likely is it that highway signs in Oregon will meet the new standards? ODOT Research drew on the findings of a recent study to help address this question.
