Description

Paint is the most common material used for transverse pavement markings (crosswalks, stop bars, traffic arrows, etc.), as it is relatively inexpensive, easy to apply and dries quickly after application. However, it requires periodic remarking due to the deterioration caused by traffic, snow removal equipment and environmental forces. A project was conducted to determine the effectiveness of two types of alternative pavement marking materials (System 400 & PolyCarb Mark-55.4) to find more durable pavement marking materials.
