• Abstract:
  When the Wayne County Road Commission painted a centerline on River Road near Trenton, Michigan, in 1911, it was this country’s first painted centerline. MDOT maintains its leadership in road delineation practices with annual restriping and delineation maintenance on 90 percent of its roadways. A recent review of road delineation practices in Michigan, across the upper Midwest and around the country confirmed the safety benefits of MDOT’s current practices and identified opportunities for improvement.
