- W2116729814 abstract "The majority of traffic fatalities in Australia occur at night. The death rate is estimated to be between three to four times higher at night than during the day. In recent a survey across Australia (AITPM, March 2004), it has been noted that the standards for road-marking, in the area of night time visibility, are either set at very low performance levels or are non existent. There have been many studies and experiments that demonstrate that accident rates can be significantly further reduced if the road markings were to be maintained to safer standards. This paper presents some of the results from this and other recent global research, and looks at how road-markings can figure in reducing crashes. It suggests that the measure of road-marking performance for both day and night, and in both wet and dry conditions, should be used as a tool in future accident investigations. The statistics would then become more meaningful, the fatalities and serious injuries could be reduced, and the cost benefit of safer performing road-markings may then be realised. Road Marking IS Road Safety. Call For Action There has been more than sufficient research to prove the worth of the humble painted pavement markings, in the role of reducing road trauma. Many new pavement marking systems have been developed, that are capable of delivering safer outcomes, for the benefit of all road users. But it appears to be going nowhere. Contractors should be educating their clients. Parties should be partnering with each other (ie: suppliers, contractors and specifiers). We have sufficient experience and knowledge now to know what all of the pavement marking system options are and how they function under a variety of conditions. Be it road texture, road alignment, lane width, traffic density or ambient conditions. We have sufficient experience and knowledge now to know what systems work best in rural areas, and what work best in urban areas. We understand the differences between Transit’s roads and some local government area’s roads. We understand compatibility and adhesion issues. We know about binder film build, adhesion coatings for glass beads, skid resistance, retroreflectivity, etc etc. There are many changes that can be made; life-cycle changes." @default.
