Two from Transpo

Transpo's T-28 Color-Safe Surface Transpo Industries has launched two new products: the T-28 Color-Safe Surface and T-78 Polymer Crack Sealer. T-28 is an acrylic-based resin system used for pavement area markings and anti-skid surfacing. Typically used for demarcation of bicycle/pedestrian paths, bus stops/lanes and other specially designated areas, it enhances skid resistance while its colour warns travellers of hazardous turns and other high accident areas on asphalt and concrete roadways.

T-28 Color-Safe Surface and T-78 Polymer Crack Sealer.

 T-28 is an acrylic-based resin system used for pavement area markings and anti-skid surfacing. Typically used for demarcation of bicycle/pedestrian paths, bus stops/lanes and other specially designated areas, it enhances skid resistance while its colour warns travellers of hazardous turns and other high accident areas on asphalt and concrete roadways.

 Meanwhile, T-78 is a low-viscosity, methyl methacrylate resin system that is highly effective for sealing and filling cracks in concrete. It bonds well to the inner walls of cracks, restoring strength and preventing crack propagation. Capable of rapid cure (under one hour) in a wide range of temperatures, the application process requires minimal labour costs, reducing the need for specialised equipment.

    Low-costs solutions to improve pedestrian safety
    David Crawford welcomes low-cost safety initiatives for pedestrians in America. Some 10 people die each week in accidents on crosswalks in the US, that’s more than 10% of all pedestrian fatalities in road traffic incidents - the number of which is running at a five-year high. Ensuring crosswalks are safe is key in supporting the growing enthusiasm for walking as a travel mode. In the last decade of the 20th century, numbers walking to work in the US fell by 26%; while, as recently as 2012, Americans were e

    Gregory Davis, FHWA, John Harding, NHTSA, and Mike Schagrin, ITS Joint Program Office (RITA) chart the course for cooperative intersection safety applications being pursued as part of the IntelliDrive programme. Crashes at intersections accounted for 8,703 highway fatalities in the US in 2008. Research and development is moving forward on IntelliDriveSM safety applications designed to help drivers avoid intersection accidents. These new safety systems could substantially drive down the highway death and inj

    ITS asset management matters
    Maintenance of on-road ITS kit needs to become more sophisticated; while new technologies can deliver better road maintenance. David Crawford investigates both sides of the issue "Good information is key to effective ITS asset maintenance,” says Ian Routledge of the Ian Routledge Consultancy (IRC), whose Imtrac (Information Management for TRAffic Control) system is poised for European expansion. Developed as an ‘intelligent filing cabinet’ for storing information about on-road equipment, the online database

    3M reflect on why CAVs need lines and signs
    Tammy Meehan and Thomas Hedblom of 3M consider the ongoing development of technology needed to introduce connected and autonomous vehicles. The transportation industry is in the midst of the most dramatic shift since Henry Ford introduced horseless carriages. Already we are seeing the increased use of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) which, along with the introduction of autonomous vehicles in the next few decades, will bring profound changes to vehicles and the environment in which they operate.
