Abstract:During the funding provided in FY2013, the GTRI developed RPM placement truck was reworked to prepare the truck
for full-time service on Georgia roadways. During this effort, the RPM truck was configured for a certain type of lane
striping – the single skip line. The single skip line configuration allows for laying down markers on multi-lane roads,
which are the most challenging roadways from a safety standpoint.
After conducting a successful training and demonstration exercise with GDOT’s District 3 personnel on May 28, 2013,
the system is now in the hands of GDOT’s maintenance crews to use on a regular basis. With the successful transition
from research to full-time use, we look forward to future developments for automated RPM technologies.
