Transverse marking
Transverse Markings (Intersectional line marking)
Transverse line marking is typically found at intersections. They are generally pavement markings that stretch across the road way. These include markings such as:
-
Stop lines
-
Give way lines
-
Pedestrian guide line
-
Turn guide lines
-
Piano keys for speed humps
Other markings that may be considered transverse include:
-
Directional or turn arrows
-
Letter stencils
-
Number stencils
-
Cross walks
Material
The selection of materials to be used takes into consideration the clients needs. Generally road marking paint may be suitable for low volume areas such as car parks. Roads with high vehicle passes require more robust marking systems. MRWA requires the use of hot (thermo) or cold applied plastics (CAP) on their network. Thermoplastic and CAP offer a high build that ensures a long life transverse marking.
