DELETE Paragraph 01.

INSERT the following paragraphs:

Support:

02A Raised pavement markers are often used to supplement longitudinal markings to improve visibility at night and in inclement weather and to supplement other markings for channelizing islands or approaches to obstructions.

Option:

03A Raised pavement markers used to supplement solid lines, broken lines, and dotted lines may be placed either directly in line with, or slightly offset from, the supplemented line. When placed in line with broken or dotted lines, they may be positioned in the gaps between the line segments. When offset from double lines, the markers should be placed outside of each line element.

Guidance:

04A Red raised pavement markers used to supplement symbols or transverse lines such as crosswalk lines, stop lines, clearance lines, and crossbars should be placed at intervals of 15 inches or less.

04B Markers representing longitudinal elements in symbols should be spaced a maximum of 60 inches apart. A maximum spacing of 30 inches should be used for diagonal elements and a maximum spacing of 15 inches should be used for transverse elements.
