Abstract:

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) uses a variety of different pavement marking ; systems and has experienced a wide range of pavement marking performance. In an effort to ; maximize marking performance and to optimize marking selection, IDOT initiated a research ; project to evaluate the performance of all currently approved marking types to develop a pavement ; marking selection guide based on performance results. ; The purpose of this project is to evaluate the performance of pavement markings on both portland ; cement concrete (PCC) and hot-mix asphalt (HMA) pavements over a period of four years. Field ; investigations were conducted to gather data on the durability and visibility of markings and the ; compatibility between markings and pavement materials. From the results of the study and a lifecycle cost analysis, Applied Research Associates (ARA) developed a pavement marking selection ; guide. Because the successful performance of a marking depends largely on controlling many ; variables during the installation of the marking, this guide includes pavement marking installation ; inspection methods for use by IDOT inspectors.
