Since July 1993, a team has been working on developing a Teleoperated Raised Pavement Marker Applicator (TRPMA). The specific objectives of this project are: (1) to test and evaluate the technical feasibility of creating a safer work environment for the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) personnel and its contractors in the area of pavement marker application, (2) to demonstrate the capabilities of advanced technologies in the area of traffic maintenance and control, and (3) to assist NCDOT in assessing the potential of advanced research and technology in the area of highway maintenance and control.

The results are presented of field testing of a low-cost pavement marker that is visible at night during rain and wet pavement conditions. This technique incorporates into one system the ability to be applied like paint and yet perform like raised, reflectorized markers. The system consists of formed-in-place markers approximately 4 inches in diameter by 0.25 inches in height which are applied by a self-propelled machine.
This Guide deals with the construction and maintenance practices that will lead to increased safety on local roads and streets. The specific purpose of the Guide, and the associated training course, is to provide local transportation agency personnel with important information related to highway safety features intended for use on roads and streets in rural and small urban areas. The intended uses and functions for each of several safety features are discussed. Examples of both good and poor practices are given.
