TRB will conduct a webinar on Thursday, March 29, 2018, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET that explores promising pavement marking maintenance practices. This webinar will focus on assessing pavement marking retroreflectivity to ensure roadways are safe for night-time travel. Presenters will provide a brief update on the proposed minimum standards to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), and will describe their state department of transportation network-level maintenance practices. A presenter from the Florida Department of Transportation will describe the new pavement marking management system used in that state, and a presenter from the Michigan Department of Transportation will describe the roadway delineation practices in Michigan.

This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Signing and Marking Materials.
