TYPES OF MARKINGS
This Section describes the types of markings including paint substitutes, pavement bars, raised pavement markers and coloured and/or textured surfaces. It details the actual dimensions and other specification attributes of markings which need not be shown on traffic control and road design drawings.
DESIGN GUIDE
This section describes the requirements for the correct and consistent use of pavement markings in South Australia. It is intended that the section provide specific diagrammatic examples of the application of markings and where necessary explain to the designer the reasons why certain treatments are used. It also provides references to the Code of Technical Requirements for the Legal Use of Traffic Control Device (The Code), Australian Standards, Austroads and Department for Transport Energy and Infrastucture (DTEI) Operational Instructions. All road authorities including their consultants and contractors are required to conform to this manual.

Introduction
3.3 Limitations Pavement markings have the following limitations: (a) They may not be clearly visible if the road is wet or dusty, for example near an edge of a median. (b) They are subject to traffic wear and usually require frequent maintenance. (c) They can be obscured by traffic. (d) Their effect on skid resistance requires careful choice of materials and precludes the use of large marked surface areas. (e) They cannot be applied to unsealed roads. In spite of these limitations they have the advantage under favourable conditions of conveying information to the driver without diverting attention from the road. 3.4 Reflectorisation All longitudinal lines except zig zag markings shall be reflectorised. 3.5 Anti-Skid Treatment An anti-skid treatment shall be applied to all markings other than longitudinal lines. 3.6 Materials Road pavements may be marked with paint, thermoplastics, pre-cut sheeting, raised pavement markers (retro-reflective, non reflective or illuminated) or pavement bars. 3.7 Colours For all traffic control purposes pavement markings shall be white, yellow or blue. Yellow shall be used on pavement bars and to define tram only lanes and areas where parking/stopping restrictions apply. Blue is used for disability access. Raised pavement markers may be white, red or yellow. Black paint may be used in the gaps and around the edges of pavement markings to heighten contrast where a light coloured pavement does not allow adequate marking definition to be obtained. Where this is being considered advice should first be sought from Manager, Traffic and Access Standards Section, DTEI. In situations such as community events on closed roads light blue coloured pavement markings (known as honour lines) may be used to define pedestrian boundaries. These markings are not considered traffic control devices but should be removed after the event, to ensure road users are not confused by the markings. 3.8 Distinctive Pavement Colours There is a trend by road authorities to use distinctive coloured pavements to highlight the road surface in a visual, tactile or audible manner. Such treatments may supplement traffic control devices (e.g. bus lanes, bicycle lanes and islands) or they may be aesthetic devices to supplement streetscape designs (e.g. intersection threshold paving treatments). For commonly used distinctive coloured pavement areas used in South Australia, refer to Part 2.15. 3.9 Off Street Parking Areas AS 2890.1 and AS 2890.6 are used in South Australia for off street car parking pavement markings.

Where the road speed limit is <70 km/h and : - Double two-way barrier lines are justified then a single continuous barrier line shall be used, including approaches to railway crossings and ferries. No gaps should be left for driveways or other accesses, only side roads. Where the road speed limit is >80 km/h and : - Double two-way barrier lines are justified, then double two-way barrier lines shall be used. Gaps should be left in linemarking for driveways, or other accesses and side roads. - Double one-way barrier lines are justified, then double one-way barrier lines shall continue across driveways and other access but gaps shall be left for side roads. - Double two-way barrier lines are justified on the approaches to railway crossings and ferries, an enhanced single barrier line shall be used. Gaps should not be left for driveways or other accesses, only side roads.

NOTE: Pavement bars shall not be used where *85th percentile approach speeds are greater than 75km/h. (The use of yellow RRPMs is an alternative, refer to inset Part B 2.13.9). Pavement bars shall always be placed at 900 to the direction of traffic.
* 85th percentile speed (V85 km/h) - the speed at or below which 85% of vehicles are observed to travel under free-flowing conditions past a nominated point. A vehicle is considered to be operating under free-flowing conditions when the preceding vehicle has at least 4 s headway and there is no apparent attempt to overtake the vehicle ahead.

A gap may only be provided where a survey determines that sufficient sight distance is available to safely allow all movements. Where provided the gap shall generally be 5m. The gap may be increased at wider accesses or where the turning vehicle envelope would otherwise cross the double two way barrier lines.

2.1 DIVIDING LINES There is no traffic volume warrant for the provision of dividing lines on urban roads in South Australia. It is important for designers to remember that the use of single continuous dividing line prohibits certain crossing movements, including U turns, but does not prohibit entering or leaving the road. U turns should generally not be restricted by the use a single continuous lines unless site distance is poor or special facilities have been provided to satisfy U turn demand within the section of road. Any assessment for the need for dividing lines should take the following into consideration:
ARR 132, 134 AS1742.2 Section 5 GTM Part 10 OI 2.15 OI 2.27 OI 2.40
All arterial roads shall be provided with dividing lines in urban areas, and shall be augmented with RRPMs. All collector roads should be provided with dividing lines. Local roads may be provided with dividing lines. Installing dividing lines on narrow roads may have implications for parking. Where provided between major intersections dividing lines should be broken, and shall be standard width for two lane roads and enhanced for multi lane roads. Where provided on minor or local roads at intersections, short sections of continuous dividing lines may be provided (see intersection examples in Part B 2.13.8, 2.13.9 and Part C 3.7). Double barrier lines, i.e. multiple lines consisting of combinations of broken and continuous lines or double continuous lines, are not used on urban roads. Broken dividing lines on arterial roads continue through minor road intersections. On any road, a break is provided in continuous dividing lines through intersections (see Part B 2.13.9 for example).
Dividing lines are not normally necessary on minor road approaches to major roads. However there may be situations where such lines could provide additional guidance to road users. Such cases include : - Wide side roads - Multi lane side roads - High volumes of right turn movements into and/or from minor road Dividing lines should not be provided on minor road approaches where right turn and through movements are prevented or prohibited from the minor road. Dividing lines should always be provided on minor road approaches that have give way or stop lines (also see Part C 2.12).

2.2 BARRIER LINES Double one way barrier lines are used at Railway Crossings and Ferries in both rural and urban areas where the speed limit is >80km/h to prohibit overtaking on the approached side. A single continuous barrier line should be used where the speed limit is <70km/h or as an alternative to permit traffic to cross the line to enter or leave the road. Where single continuous barrier line is used, it shall be standard width on roads <70km/h and enhanced on roads >80km/h. Generally single continuous lines should be used instead of double barrier lines (one-way or two- way) in urban and low speed rural areas (also see Part B 2.1.2). There is a temptation to use double barrier lines (double one-way or double two-way) to control vehicle movements. However experience has shown that such treatments are generally too passive in nature. Where it is considered necessary to prohibit all crossing movements (for road safety) then preference should be given to physical controls e.g. raised medians and islands, that are self regulating and do not rely on police enforcement to be effective. For further information on the use of barrier lines on rural roads refer to Part C 3.4. ARR 132, 134 AS1742.2 Section 5 AS1742.7 Section 3 GTM Part 10 OI 2.15 OI 2.40 OI 7.1

2.3 DIAGONAL STRIPES AND CHEVRON MARKINGS Diagonal stripes and chevron markings are used to augment and highlight pavement marking treatments. They often have legal significance under the ARR. They take the form of chevrons when used to indicate that drivers, travelling in the same direction may pass either side of the treated area or as diagonal stripes where the treatments separate opposing traffic flows. Refer to Part B 2.4 for detailed layout of stripes. Spacing between diagonal stripes at low speed turns is generally 6m. The spacing for diagonal stripes and chevron markings is generally 6m on roads <70km/h, 12m on roads >80km/h and 24m or 48m on freeways/expressways. Diagonal stripes shall be placed at 45 degrees to the direction of travel whether straight or curved and shall be at 45 degrees to the centre line of the divergence where drivers travel on both sides of the markings. While not exclusive, below are examples of diagonal treatments.

The use of diagonal stripes is discouraged on left turn treatments, where the left turn driver has priority. Stripes are a passive treatment and in this location are usually driven over regulary, requiring additional maintenance. They can also be a slip hazard with differential skid resistance between the painted area and the pavement.
*Nominal spacing between stripes is 6 metres but may be varied. For rural treatments the spacing may be increased depending on the radius of the curve. Where the section to be striped is short it is preferable to provide stripes closer together (as close as 3 metres) to ensure the stripes provide the desired effect of discouraging traffic from driving on the area.

2.3.2 Flush medians Flush medians may separate lanes dividing opposing traffic streams, while allowing access to and from the road or entrance to a turning lane. It should be noted that unlike raised medians, flush medians do not provide physical control of traffic movements nor do they have the advantages of being clearly visible, especially at night and in wet weather.

2.3.3 Corner islands The use of very small corner islands (less than 3m sides) should be avoided. Such islands cause confusion to drivers regarding give way responsibilities when turning at intersections. Chevrons and diagonal stripes may be used between the outline and the kerb of a raised island where better turning control is required. However they should only be augmented with diagonal stripes where the distance between the kerb and outline is greater than 1.0m.

2.4 DIVERGE AND MERGE TAPER TREATMENTS 2.4.1 Diverge taper treatments It is often necessary to move traffic laterally across a section of road without merging lanes. Examples include divergence of traffic lanes to avoid pedestrian refuges, on street parking areas and at the start of median sections. It is preferable to provide as long a divergence length as possible, especially where two or more adjacent lanes must diverge. The following diverge calculation provides a minimum length. However, experience has shown that greater lengths should be provided whenever possible. For example, extra taper length is important for pedestrian refuge situations to provide additional protection for pedestrians and to avoid constant damage to signs and pedestrians hand rails.

2.5 RAISED PAVEMENT MARKERS Broken and continuous lines may be augmented with retroreflective raised pavement markers (RRPMs). Standard spacing is 12m on lit and 24m on unlit roads. As a minimum on arterial roads, RRPMs shall be provided on all dividing lines in urban areas and should be provided in rural areas. RRPMs should also be provided on lane lines, special purpose lane lines and flush island outlines. RRPMs enhance longitudinal lines to such an extent that they discourage crossing movements. For this reason RRPMs shall not be used on continuity lines except in circumstances shown. RRPMs may be used on collector and local roads if additional delineation treatment is considered necessary. For the use of non-reflective pavement markers through intersections, refer to Part C 2.17.6.

Design Guide
2.5.1.Continuity lines Generally RRPMs are not required on continuity lines. However, in some rare cases they may be required to provide guidance .eg - On tapers where traffic is required to deviate from their path eg. trapped lane situation. - On long lengths of curvilinear continuity lines. Note: - RRPMs shall not be used on continuity lines in merging situations. - Where used, spacing shall be generally the same as that applied to lane lines i.e. 24m on unlit roads, 12m on lit roads.

where RRPMs on continuity lines are used, it must be shown / indicated on the design drawings.
2.5.2 Bicycle lanes The provision of RRPMs can be hazardous to cyclists when placed adjacent bicycle lane lines. This is particularly the case for part-time bicycle lanes when cyclists are required to ride around parked cars outside bicycle lane operating times. Therefore it is recommended that RRPMs not be located adjacent to or near part-time bicycle lane lines. It may also be appropriate to not install RRPMs on full-time bicycle lanes in areas where cyclists are required to ride around buses and other vehicles legitimately stopped on the road.

2.6 LANE LINES Lane lines divide two or more lines of traffic travelling in the same direction and shall be provided on roads where traffic is expected to travel in more than one lane. Lanes in urban areas should not be marked on a road where it would result in lane widths of less than 3.0m. Where kerbside lanes are designed to be shared with cyclists, the minimum lane width shall be 3.7m Lane lines are normally standard broken. However, continuous lane lines may be required between exclusive through and exclusive turn lanes on approaches to intersections (see Part C 2.7). They may also be used to restrict lane changing mid-block. Lane lines should be continued through minor road intersections. At a lane drop, the lane line should cease before the taper commences. This distance is shown in the table in Part C 2.4.2. For lane lines on the approach to signalised intersections see Part C 2.17.5. For the use of continuity lines as lane lines (including the length of continuous line) see Part C 2.7.

Lane lines must be curved where necessary to ensure this guidance is further enhanced.

2.7 CONTINUITY LINES Continuity lines generally provide longitudinal continuity to traffic along lengths of road where lane lines or other longitudinal lines either cannot or should not be provided. They are used to substitute lane, dividing or edgelines where it is intended that the line be crossed. Where they are used in lieu of a lane or dividing line it is important to remember that they may continue to have the same legal effect in regard to traffic movements. Examples of continuity lines include :
References
To provide continuity at very wide straight openings across side roads or other entry and exit points along a road or across those openings that are subject to significant vertical or horizontal changes. Continuity lines should only be provided for such situations where it is likely that through traffic would otherwise loose continuity of travel (see Part C 2.5.1 for example). At the start and end of auxiliary and special purpose lanes to indicate the section of road that should be crossed to access or exit the auxiliary lane. Across side roads and other sections of road to indicate the continuance of bicycle lanes. Across median openings where the median is greater than 2 metres in width.

2.12 KERB EXTENSION MARKINGS Kerb extensions (formerly known as protuberances) are used to reduce road widths, especially in pedestrian crossing locations. They also provide traffic calming qualities to a road by removing parking from the through traffic. As the name suggests, kerb extensions should preferably consist of raised areas bordered by semi mountable median type kerbing. However, they may also consist of pavement markings designated by outline markings with diagonal stripes, and pavement bars and/or RRPMs. Kerb extensions may also be used to physically control the movement of vehicles, such as a traffic divergence on a road section or to create a high angle entry to the main road.
Note: Diagonal stripes should be placed at 6m spacing on the divergence taper section and then at 12m spacing for long parallel sections up to 200m. For sections longer then 200m where diagonal stripes are considered necessary they may be spaced at up to 24m in urban areas and up to 48m in high speed rural areas.

2.13 STANDARD INTERSECTIONS (Local Roads) Local or minor roads need not to be line marked. However, where they are, it is preferred to provide a single dividing line to the extent of the limit of the No Stopping restriction from the intersection (only) on the road with priority. The controlled road approaches i.e. the road under Give Way or Stop sign control must be provided with a give way or stop line. The provision of a dividing line from the give way or stop line is preferred. The dividing line would not normally extend beyond 10m from the kerb alignment of the intersecting road. This length of line matches the road rule which prohibits stopping within 10m of an intersecting road. Single lane

Multi-lane minor road exits, from major roads, where traffic may enter the side road from more then one lane, lane lines should be provided. In these cases, the lane line should commence 300mm from the prolongation of the main road kerb line. At least three line segments are preferred. For multi-lane minor roads approaching a major road, lane lines should cease with a full line segment at 300mm back from the prolongation of the main road kerb line. Where a stop or give way line exists, the full line segment should cease. Where lane use discipline is a problem, pavement arrows should be provided. Multi lane

2.16 ROUNDABOUTS Give Way lines All roundabouts shall be provided with give way lines at the point drivers are expected to hold to give way before entering the circulating lane(s). To determine the location of the give way line it is important to consider sight distance to approaching vehicles from the right while ensuring that the holding vehicle is not placed within the turning path of vehicles travelling within the circulating lane(s), see Part C 2.14. Special purpose and lane lines Refer to Part C 2.6.1. Note: Spiral lane line markings i.e. where additional lanes are created within a roundabout shall not be used in SA without the authorisation of DTEI, Manager Traffic and Access Standards. Pavement arrows Pavement arrows, while not used on single lane roundabouts, shall be used on any approach to the roundabout which has more then one lane. Splitter islands Splitter islands, raised or flush, shall be provided on each approach. A standard single continuous barrier line should be marked on the approach to a splitter island. Painted kerb and outlines All roundabouts, splitter islands and kerb extension shall be painted and may be outlined. For semi-mountable central islands and sppitter islands refer to Part B 2.16.2.

2.17.1 Pedestrian crosswalk lines (a) Pedestrian The signalised crossing should be at least 2m wide and delineated by two parallel lines. See Part B 2.2.3. The line nearest the centre of the intersection should be not less then 0.6m (desirably 1m) clear of the cross street kerb line projection. Crosswalks shall always be on a straight alignment between staged crossing points. No other lines shall be placed between the crosswalk lines

2.17.3 Turn lines Turn lines may be used within signalised intersections to indicate the proper course to be followed by turning vehicles. They shall always be used within an intersection where there is more than one turning lane for turns in a particular direction. They are not required when the path to be followed is obvious to drivers under all conditions. Where opposing right-turn movements operate in the same phase, care must be taken with positioning turn lines so that sufficient gap is left between opposing turning traffic. Austroads turning path templates or recognised equivalent should be used for turn lines. It is suggested that a gap of 1.2 to 2.0m is provided between the turning vehicle envelopes. At major urban intersections with double right-turn lanes from opposite directions, it is necessary to select the design vehicles for the turns, e.g. car and semi-trailer from both directions. Turn lines should not be carried through pedestrian crosswalks but may continue after to continue guidance. Turn lines location shall be determined using design turning envelope as a guide, however each location will be different depending on, for example, approach road angles, number of turn lanes and/or phase sequence. Where multi-turn lanes exist adequate separation shall be provided between each adjacent design turning envelope. Turn lines can be designed and depicted using turn line design strings.

2.17.4 Pavement arrows Intersection pavement arrows may be provided in lanes to indicate the direction in which a driver is legally obliged to travel through the intersection. They should only be used in lanes from which the movements differ from the road rules. e.g. The road rules allow drivers to turn left or travel through an intersection from the left lane. If these movements are to be permitted within the intersection, the pavement arrow should not be provided. For simplicity, use of Intersection Pavement Arrows table (page C-38) shows the movements for which arrows shall be provided. Intersection pavement arrows shall not be used to indicate a turn where the turn is restricted during certain hours of the day. When used, a minimum of 3 arrows should be provided in a traffic lane on the approach to traffic signals. The arrow closest to the intersection shall be provided 6m from the stop line or from the tangent point of the curve for a left turn lane. Subsequent arrows should normally be provided at as close to 30m spacing as possible (tail to tail). However, to ensure three arrows are provided, spacing may be reduced down to a minimum of 15m. The last arrow shall be provided at a point where the full lane width is developed. For very short lanes where three arrows cannot be provided (at 15m spacing) the number of arrows may be reduced.

2.17.5 Lane lines On the immediate approaches to traffic signals, the use of lane lines is essential where the approach width will accommodate two or more traffic streams. On the approach lane lines should cease with a full line segment at the stop line. This may require a shorter gap segment, or a longer line segment. On exits to intersections where pedestrian crosswalks exist, lane lines should start as close as practicable (but not closer than 300mm) to the crosswalk. For zip merges on the exit to intersections, refer to Part C 2.4.2. For the use of continuity lines as lane lines, refer to Part C 2.7.

2.17.6 Non-reflective raised pavement markers Vehicles my require guidance through intersections by the placement of Non-Reflective Raised Pavement Markers (NRPM) within the intersection for non-turning traffic. Treatment is normally applicable only to wide signalized intersections on multilane roads. NRPM must be placed such that they do not interfere with the alignment of the cross movement lanes. Typical situations are: Lanes on opposite sides of the intersection offset by half a lane width or more. Drivers required to steer a curved course through the intersection. Highly skewed intersections where the travel distance within the intersection is excessive. Features such as tram lines or adverse geometry which may make the course difficult to follow.

Refuges shall be outlined and the outline shall continue past the pedestrian opening. Where pedestrian openings are provided through medians, outlines shall also continue past the opening but only if that length of median is provided with an outline. Where the pedestrian refuge divides opposing traffic movements unidirectional yellow RRPMs shall be provided at 6.0m spacings. White RRPMs shall be provided at the same spacing where the refuge separates traffic travelling in the same direction.
Pedestrian refuges are either short lengths of raised medians used on roads for the sole purpose of providing a staging area for pedestrians crossing the road or are long lengths of median through which cut outs or walkthroughs may be provided.

2.24 FLOODWAYS AND CAUSEWAYS Floodways and causeways are sections of road that are subject to flooding. When water is over the roadways delineation is reduced because the edgelines and particularly the standard dividing line (3m line, 9m gap) is very difficult to see through the water. However, it is important not to unreasonably restrict traffic movement by providing an continuous dividing line. To increase delineation qualities of the dividing line while still allowing the line to be crossed, a special purpose broken dividing line ( i.e. 9m line, 3m gap) shall be used across the section of road regularly subject to flooding.

AS1742.2 Section 5
All rural arterial roads shall be provided with dividing lines and should be augmented with RRPMs. All rural collector roads should be provided with dividing lines. Local rural roads may be provided with dividing lines. Installing dividing lines on narrow roads may have implications for parking. Where provided between major rural intersections dividing lines should be broken, and shall be standard width for 2 lane roads and enhanced for multi lane roads. Where provided on minor or local rural roads at intersections, short sections of single continuous barrier line may be provided. Dividing lines on rural arterial roads through minor road intersections are generally broken (see Part C 3.8 Standard Rural Intersections).
3.4 BARRIER LINES ON RURAL ROADS A single continuous barrier line should be used through rural townships as an alternative to double two-way barrier lines. This allows the line to be crossed by traffic entering or leaving the road. Barrier lines on high speed rural roads shall only consist of double lines, either Double One Way Barriers or Double Two Way Barriers to create No Overtaking Zones and shall be restricted to locations with either horizontal or vertical sight restrictions or both and only be determined in accordance with AS1742.2. Double barrier lines, one way or two way, are not generally used in SA to prohibit overtaking at isolated locations unless there are sight restrictions which meet requirements for such lines. The only exceptions to the above requirement include:
Railway level crossings in accordance with Australian Standards Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (AS1742). Overtaking lanes in accordance with this document and Operational Instruction 2.15 Ferry approaches in accordance with Australian Standards Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices.

3.5 LANE LINES ON RURAL ROADS Lane lines i.e. lines dividing lanes of the same direction traffic, must be provided on roads where traffic is expected to travel in more than one line of traffic. Lanes should not be marked on a rural road where it would result in lane widths of less than 3.2 metres. Restricted access routes may require greater lane widths. Lane lines are normally standard broken. However, unbroken lane lines may be used between exclusive through and exclusive turn lanes on approaches to intersections. Lane lines on rural roads should be continued through minor road intersections. All multi lane divided rural roads shall be provided with enhanced edgelines and outlines.

3.6 EDGELINES ON RURAL ROADS Edgelines are provided on most rural arterial roads. They provide a clear definition of the lane and discourage traffic from travelling on shoulders. They are particularly effective at night. Edgelines shall be provided on all rural roads to ensure the desirable alne width does not exceed 3.5 metres. Practices regarding lane and sealed shoulder widths including the issues relating to pavement depth, should be considered before providing an edgeline. Part C 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 show best practice in regard to installation of dividing lines and edgelines. Part C 3.6.3 and 3.6.4 indicates a required treatment.
