Comprehensive sign management and exceeds FHWA and MUTCD Retro-reflectivity standards
Signs Plus© is a comprehensive sign management program designed to meet the new retro-reflectivity minimum standards that go into effect January 2012. The Federal Highway Administration developed six methods that can be used to track how well signs reflect light at night and all city, county, state and federal agencies must adopt one or more of these methods in 2012 and begin replacing regulatory, warning and ground mounted guide signs by 2015.
In addition to meeting these standards, Signs Plus is a complete sign management program that identifies and rates sign assets, tracks sign repair and maintenance costs, maintains sign inventories (both installed and in the sign shop), integrates with a performance-based inspection module and provides comprehensive reporting that identifies deficient signs by condition, class, area or type, tracks detailed work cost and accomplishment history and helps control costs using best business practices.
Signs Plus uses master records to identify sign attributes, including MUTCD type and color, location (using GIS, GPS, LRS or address), sign condition, picture, support type and other characteristics.
Signs Plus uses user-defined inspection schedules to support the six approved retro-reflectivity methods identified by the MUTCD guidelines, including retro-reflectometers.
Signs Plus is available as a low-cost standalone module or as an integrated module that’s part of CMS’s suite of performance-based management modules. It was designed to be equally effective for small cities as well as state departments of transportation with hundreds of thousands of signs to maintain.
