Road Markings
What are Road Markings?
Road Markings are another category of Traffic Control Devices in addition to the Road Signs.
They are used as a means of controlling and guiding traffic and are highly important on urban roads and intersections as they promote road safety and bring out smooth and harmonious flow of traffic.
They also supplement the messages conveyed by road signals and signs. In some cases, road markings are used alone to convey certain regulation, information or warning that cannot otherwise be effectively made known to the road users.
Markings serve as a psychological barrier and thus help to signify the delineation of traffic path and lateral clearance from traffic hazards facilitating safe movement.
