Agencies must have a sign management program in place to insure that signs along roadways meet certain minimum retro-reflectivity standards.  In 2008, the FHWA required that state and local agencies must assess and develop a sign replacement plan by January 2012.  Non-compliant warning and regulatory signs must be in compliance by 2015 and guidance and street name  signs  must be in compliance by 2018.

As an agency, how can you best manage your road signs?  GEO-Jobe incorporates a turn key solution for agencies to effectively manage their sign “retro-reflectivity” program.  We can customize a geodatabase to properly inventory your signs by including useful management attributes in the database such as:  maintenance records, location, incident reports, installation dates, type, retroreflectivity, environmental conditions, etc.

One Response to Sign Management Program – Minimum Reflectivity Standards

  1. Here is yet another example of the Federal Government flexing its musicals and blackmailing the states and local governments to follow one “one size fits all” regulations. Don’t do what you’re told and we cut some of your matching funds. How dare the feds treat the several states in this way with OUR tax dollars? Ever hear of the 10th Amendment? The states should not comply with this extortion. If we don’t take their hand outs, they can’t tell us what to do!
