A comprehensive state of the art summery covering the application of various delineation treatments to highway situations, delineation material properties, the human factors literature pertinent to delineation and cost effectiveness considerations was compiled. Emphasis was given to current practices and research findings. The two principal products of this research are: (1) a set of guidelines to assist the decision-maker in the selection and evaluation of alternative roadway delineation treatments and systems, and (2.) recommendations for the application of various delineation treatments at each of several "classical" geometric situations.
