140 Transpo will be highlighting its Color-Safe pavement marking system at Intertraffic. The company claims the product is the most cost-effective, high-definition colour marking on the market today and was recently used for bus lane demarcation in both New York City and Chicago.

Cold weather applications extend the marking season and with the long life cycle of Color-Safe, Transpo says transportation officials look at Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) as the optimal material for special use lane marking for both concrete and asphalt surfaces. MMA symbols and striping develop a strong bond to existing MMA, and are capable of full cure down to 40°F, making Color-Safe a viable alternative to thermoplastic markings.
