Road reflectors can be used to control traffic and promote safe driving. Street reflectors can be made of ceramic or plastic. Road reflectors can also be called traffic delineators or raised pavement markers, traffic signs and traffic signs. Street reflectors can have reflective lenses that reflect the light from car headlights. Street reflectors can be used for many purposes, but they are especially important to make roads visible at night. The color of the street reflectors will depend on their use. Different countries have different meanings for the different colors.
The color meaning of street
reflectors in North America is yellow or amber. This is to indicate the double
lane at the intersection of two-way traffic. It can also be used to indicate
the left edge for one-way streets. The right edge of the street is marked with
white, while the general lane divisions are marked by blue. Red marks fire
hydrants, and red marks restrictive markings like "do not enter". It
is vital to ensure consistency in design. This will help reduce confusion and
misinterpretation about what the symbol for these road indicators stands for.
International efforts are underway to standardize these road markers.
You can find road reflectors in the
following colors: yellow, white and red. There are three options for the
reflector: a single-sided, two-sided or none. You can install it with
self-adhesive butyl pads or epoxy kits, bituminous adhesives, and thermoplastic
adhesives. It is made from extra-strong plastic and ceramic in sizes 4",
6", and 8". They come in various shapes, such as square, rectangles,
ovals, circles, and other irregular shapes. These road indicators are placed on
the road surface to provide guidance and information for pedestrians and
drivers.
Ceramic street reflectors or ceramic
road markers are designed to attract attention to mark paved surfaces. It has a
4" diameter with a height of 0.75" and a 6" and an 8"
diameter with 1.75". The heat-fired glaze surface of these ceramic road
indicators is maintenance free. It is impervious to dirt and can withstand
1,500 pounds of compressive force. The following products are available for
ceramic road markers: yellow round 4" & 6", white round 4 &
6", yellow round 6", yellow round 4 & 6", yellow ceramic
marker 8, yellow ceramic jiggle 8", white ceramic oval 6", and white
ceramic marker 8. The following options are available for plastic road markers:
yellow road, clear road, yellow round 4" and 6", yellow round 4"
and 6", white ceramic marker 8", yellow ceramic jiggle 6", white
ceramic oval, black ceramic marker, and clear box.
Road reflectors are installed in a
variety of ways depending on how much traffic there is and the climate. A self-adhesive
butyl pad is the best way to install street reflectors in areas with low to
moderate traffic. Bitumen or epoxy adhesive are better options for attaching
street reflectors to asphalt in areas with more traffic. Street reflectors are
made for snowploughs in areas that receive significant snowfall.
To generate traffic control solutions, these road reflectors may be used in various models. If ceramic street reflectors are placed in close proximity, along the length of a road, they can create a traffic-calming rumble strip. Street reflectors that form a diamond can be used to delineate a high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane. Road reflectors are sometimes also used to designate pedestrian areas.
