Temporary Traffic Control

The sooner drivers and pedestrians recognize they are entering a work zone, the safer everyone and workers can be.

Work zone conditions can easily compromise the positioning and visibility of traffic control devices. Better, more visible, signs attract the driver’s attention sooner, for earlier comprehension and a more natural, timely driving reaction among other drivers and workers nearby.

Temporary traffic zones exist in all types of seasons and all sorts of weather conditions.

Wet reflective pavement markings work with water to remain highly visible in the rain and wet road conditions. The retroreflective continuous delineation emphasizes lane shifts in low-visibility conditions.

Applying 3M™ Wet Reflective Pavement Markings for traffic changeovers can be critical to helping drivers navigate work zones safely—especially during rainy weather.
