Providing positive guidance
through changing roadway geometry
It is well known that
changes in roadway geometry lead to increased crashes,
resulting in escalating costs to agencies and society.
Navigating changing roadways becomes even more difficult
at night.
-
Two-thirds of fatalities
occur when vehicle leave the road
-
Single vehicle
run-off-the-road accidents continue to lead U.S.
crash statistics
-
In the U.S., the
nighttime accident rate is three times that of the
day rate
The Diamond Grade™
Linear Delineation System provides clear visual guidance
to help drivers through work zones and other challenging
roadway conditions.
Proven technology for
increased safety
3M’s linear delineation
system is designed to enhance driver safety where there
is a need to call attention to a changed or changing
condition, such as an abrupt road-way narrowing or
curvature, or to provide guidance through a work zone.
Common applications include:
-
Curved roadways
-
 Tunnel
approaches
-
Entrance and exit ramps
-
Narrow bridges
Linear delineation system
panels combine high performance 3M™ Diamond Grade™
Reflective Sheeting with a unique crimped design for
optimal visibility and angularity. Panels are available
in fluorescent colors that provide increased visibility
from dawn to dusk, as well as at night.
Economical and durable
Linear delineation
technology continues 3M’s 70-year tradition of
delivering traffic safety solutions with
industry-leading service life. 3M’s linear
delineation system panels are economical and now even
easier to install with 3M™ VHB™ Tape. High
performance VHB tape is pre-applied to the panels for
fast, easy application to metal guardrails, work zone
barriers and median barriers. No special tools or messy
adhesives are required. 3M linear delineation
system panels are now available in a 1.5-inch version
designed to fit into guardrail troughs and offers
flexibility for application to concrete or other
surfaces both on and off the roadway.
