LIGHTING THE WAY...TTI RESEARCHERS CONFIRM HIGH REFLECTIVITY QUALITY OF GLASS-COVERED PAVEMENT MARKERS

The Texas Transportation Institute conducted a test of various retroreflective raised pavement markers (RRPM) to determine losses of reflectivity over time due to roadway volumes, amount of truck traffic, and lane-changing frequency. Glass-covered RRPMs performed the best, with reflectivity at useful levels after 54 weeks of exposure. This article provides details on the study.
