Road Line-marking Evaluation - Victoria
Client: Department of Transport and Planning Victoria
The Challenge
Innovative photoluminescent road line markings had been installed at select locations across Victoria, but there was no reliable method to evaluate their real-world effectiveness. Traditional observation methods could not objectively measure whether the enhanced markings changed driver behaviour, lane positioning, or safety outcomes.
Our Solution
Real Time Traffic deployed NearMiss cameras at locations with photoluminescent line markings to capture and analyse vehicle lane positioning, speed profiles, and driver behaviour both before and after installation, providing objective evaluation of marking effectiveness.
Implementation Details:
- NearMiss camera deployment at photoluminescent marking locations
- Before-and-after vehicle lane position analysis
- Speed profile comparison across treatment sites
- Day vs night behaviour change analysis
- Statistical evaluation of marking effectiveness
Results
Long-term Impact
Provided road authorities with objective, data-driven evidence on the effectiveness of photoluminescent road markings to inform future infrastructure investment decisions
