DELETE Paragraphs 02 through 05.

INSERT the following paragraphs:

Support:

01A Where used to delineate the curb, visibility is generally improved, especially during night hours. They become, in effect, edge markings delineating the edge of the roadway.

Support:

06A This is considered good practice for the following reasons:

In the winter, curb markings are frequently obliterated by snow and ice; and

Road users with visual deficiencies can find it difficult to distinguish colors and/or read word markings on curbs, especially at night.

Standard:

07A A colored curb shall not be used to convey parking regulations. Signs shall be the primary method to indicate non-statutory parking regulations. Where curbs are marked, the colors shall conform to the general principles of markings (see Section 3A.05).

Option:

07B Legible word markings may be used to convey a general statutory prohibition of parking within a specific distance of a STOP sign, driveway, fire hydrant, or crosswalk.
