Abstract This report analyzes the impacts that might be expected from the adoption of proposed minimum maintained retroreflectivity levels for traffic signs to improve night visibility. The report evaluates the broad spectrum of concerns expressed by State and local agency staff at four workshops held during the summer of 2002. These include administrative, fiscal, implementation, and tort liability concerns.
