Sign Retroreflectivity Training

Has your agency established and implemented a sign maintenance program that regularly addresses the new Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) minimum sign retroreflectivity requirements? For traffic signs to be effective in providing important information to driver, agencies should implement a sign maintenance program that regularly addresses the new MUTCD minimum requirements. This course is designed for road supervisors, public works directors and crews to perform sign retroreflectivity inspection using the approved methods by the FHWA.

Training will be held on August 5 at the Clarion Hotel in Lexington.
