Strap on your seatbelt and take a ride with us in the field to see these innovations in action. This presentation will keep you in the loop and is going to be exciting as we will be touring via camera assorted installations of new traffic devices in action….the blinking stop light, municipal street signs, assorted pavement markings, J-Turn, wide pavement markings, rumbles and more!
Our anticipated audience for this is cities, counties, those in design / maintenance, the consulting business and – of course, those that use our roadways to get from one place to another.
Participation is open to the public and throughout the address, you will have the ability to type questions in the “Chat Box” that may be answered by the presenter.
