Enabling DOT's & Road Agencies

to efficiently & safely assess pavement marking condition

RetroTek-D

The Cost Effective, Eco Friendly, Safe Solution for Pavement Marking Condition Assessment

We understand the pressure on Road Agencies & Departments of Transportation (DoTs) to maintain & improve road safety and reduce accidents on their roads. The quality of pavement line markings and center lane markings such as warning symbols, shields, crosswalks have been proven to have a significant influence on road safety.

In particular, good nighttime visibility (retro-reflectivity) of pavement markings dramatically reduces accidents and fatalities. A combination of factors including quality of application & material applied, road usage and weather can accelerate the deterioration of these safety-critical pavement markings.

The RetroTek-D retroreflectometer for road markings is a complete solution for DOTs with the QuickView-Pro survey results platform that will assist Road Agencies to develop a pavement marking management program aimed at improving both pavement marking performance and Agency oversight to deliver higher levels of safety and precise asset management.

Our innovative RetroTek-D dynamic pavement marking retroreflectometer, includes the latest technology developments in Machine Vision, LED lighting and Artificial Intelligence to provide Road Agencies & DOTs with certifiable accurate data on the quality of pavement marking in their area. Our retroreflectometer for road markings provides the same level of accuracy as handheld retroreflectometer devices. The RetroTek-D system collects data across the full lane width at normal traffic speeds, eliminating the need for traffic management, road or lane closures. This includes measurement of the retroreflectivity (mcd/m²/lux) of the right and left lane striping and critical center lane markings, pavement safety warnings and symbols. It also records presence or absence of road pavement markers and the day contrast ratios (Weber) of pavement markings, as used by ADAS machine vision safety warning systems in vehicles.

best bit of kit out there

When it comes to retro-reflectivity measurement, it’s definitely the best bit of kit out there at the moment 😃

Richard Wix

Principal Consultant at NTRO (formerly ARRB)

technical support is second to none

We are delighted with the performance of the RetroTek as it measures the striping on both sides of the lane in one pass without the need to switch the sensor from one side of the vehicle to the other. At the end of surveying, all the data can be quickly prepared & sent to district TX Dot officials, without the need for hours of post-processing.
The RetroTek technical support is second to none.

a competitive choice

The flexibility of RetroTek has allowed ERC to meet and exceed the stringent requirements set by ERA. Its easy setup, ability to measure line retroreflectivity on both sides of a lane and then illustrate these results on the MultiView mapping & video interactive platform, made the RetroTek a competitive choice.

Transport Infrastructure Ireland were very happy with the survey

Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) were very happy with the survey results and impressed with the RetroTek-Pro software with interactive data base and video analysis. The timescale was tight (12 weeks) and delivery was enabled by the efficiency of the RetroTek system.

Senior Network Operations, Transport Infrastructure Ireland

impressed with the RL accuracy of the RetroTek

We were very satisfied with the survey results and impressed with the RL accuracy of the RetroTek and the ability to detect the reflective pavement markings (RPMs)/road studs to within 3% accuracy over 1km. This information was very helpful in assisting our maintenance department to prioritise maintenance of road markings and reflective pavement markings (RPMs) / road studs where most needed and plan future maintenance schedules. The contract was delivered on time due to the efficiency of the RetroTek system to simultaneously measure the performance of multiple road assets in one pass.

ERA was very happy with the survey results and impressed with the RetroTek QuickView-Pro software

ERA was very happy with the survey results and impressed with the RetroTek QuickView-Pro software with interactive data base, mapping and video analysis. It gives good overview of results and opportunity very easy to plan further road marking replacement plans. The timescale was tight and due to weather conditions, it was very hard to keep in timescale. But despite that the delivery was enabled by the efficiency of the contractor ERC Consulting Ltd and RetroTek system.
