Download or read book Relative Visibility of Increased Legend Size Vs. Brighter Materials for Traffic Signs written by Douglas J. Mace and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Static and dynamic legibility studies were conducted to investigate the effects of level of reflectivity, letter series, stroke width, letter spacing, font, letter height, and driver age. The dynamic study also considered the effect of sign size and retroreflectivity on the level of conspicuity. As expected, driver age had the largest effect on both legibility and conspicuity. In fact, the daytime legibility for older drivers is almost as poor as night legibility. Level of retroreflectivity, letter series, and letter height all had a significant effect on legibility. Increases in letter height resulted in proportionate increases in legibility up to about 600 ft (183 m).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ubiquitous nature of transport signs on roadways, railways, and in airports can lead to an overload of visual information, yet little research has been done to understand the design and use of such signs from a driver‘s perspective. The Human Factors of Transport Signs explores key transport sign research and examines new technologies

Book excerpt: This study was conducted to investigate ways of increasing the legibility of signs with high background brightness. Research was limited to silver, yellow, and orange encapsulated lens sheeting materials, and modifications were made within the standards for highway signs as specified in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The results of the study show that in Virginia the legibility of selected signs with high background brightness can be increased by modifying the letter design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to traffic engineers, planners, and others interested in making sure that motorists' needs for directional information on freeways are being met. Information is provided on policies and procedures used by states in evaluating freeway guide signs and replacing those that are outdated or deteriorated. Many signs on freeways and other controlled-access highways have exceeded their service life and are no longer serving motorists' needs. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the policies, proceduress, and criteria used by states for freeway sign evaluation and replacement programs.

Download or read book Policies for Use of Changeable Message Signs in Highway Work Zones written by Siim Soot and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portable Changeable Message Sign (PCMS) systems used in work zones are programmable supplementary traffic control devices that display messages composed of letters, symbols or both and provide information and instructions to the traveling public approaching work zone activities. The study seeks to develop warrants and criteria for PCMS deployment in Illinois highway work zones. It is recommended that PCMS systems be used during long- and intermediate-term stationary work, for traffic control through incident areas, and in projects where advance-time notification is needed. The discussion focuses on spacing criteria, number of signs required, sign visibility and message legibility, text alignment, distance criteria, message length, duration and type, project-level operational guidelines, message storage and dissemination, repair, maintenance and utility costs, as well as control and coordination issues. The study concludes that additional research is needed in order to: develop a comprehensive standardized statewide database of messages and message abbreviations; develop a comprehensive repository with information about the technology of the various components of the PCMS units; coordinate PCMS units used in highway work zones with a corridor or regional ATMS system; and maintain information about the use of a PCMS unit in a work zone project and possibly integrate it with other relevant information in a management system.
