TRB Straight to Recording for All: Rumble Strips/Stripes: Practices and Challenges

TRB recorded a series of videos in May 2017 that features research from the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP)'s Synthesis 490: Practice of Rumble Strips and Rumble Stripes. The research summarizes the current practices used by states when installing rumble strips and rumble stripes, the pavement marking lines painted on the rumble strips to increase visibility during inclement weather conditions. The series explores variations in practice in terms of design, criteria, locations for installation, maintenance, perceived benefits, communication of benefits, and other issues. The videos are available on-demand at no cost.

The slides are available. The videos are also available.
