INTRODUCTION
The City of Miami Beach has requested Florida International University (FIU) to conduct a
citywide assessment of pavement marking condition. The main objective of this study is to
identify and prioritize locations within the City for restriping the pavement markings. The scope
of this study is limited to public roads maintained by the City of Miami Beach.
WORK TASKS
The specific work tasks of this scope are listed below:
• Identify and acquire different types of data
• Collect data on pavement marking condition during daytime and nighttime
• Develop a prioritized list of improvement locations
Task 1: Acquire Data
This task focuses on acquiring the data needed to perform the analysis. Data will be extracted
from several sources. When unavailable, the data will be collected from aerial images. More
specifically, the following data will be obtained and included in the analysis:
• Road network: The Geographic Information System (GIS) shapefiles of the public road
network in the City of Miami Beach will be obtained from the City of Miami Beach
Transportation Department.
• Crash data: Signal Four Analytics will be used to extract crash data for the entire City of
Miami Beach for the,:years 2014 through 2016. This information will be included in the
analysis.
• Land use data: If available, the type of land use will also be incorporated in the analysis.
• Traffic data: Traffic volumes will be extracted from the All-Roads map provided by the
Florida Department of Transportation. Other sources of this information will also be
reviewed.
Task 2: Collect Data on Pavement Markina Condition
The City does not have information on the present condition of pavement markings. Hence, a
major effort of this project would be to collect this information. This information will be collected
both during daytime and nighttime conditions. The condition of pavement markings on the entire
road network within the 15.22 sq. miles of the city area will be recorded. Based on a quick
review of the Roadway GIS layer, the City is has approximately 60 miles of road network.
A student of FIU will install a video camera in the car dashboard and will drive through the entire
road network in the City during daytime. The recorded data will be reviewed on campus at FIU,
and data on the quality of the pavement markings will be collected. The same procedure will be
repeated to record the pavement marking quality at night
13
Task 3: Prioritize Locations for Improvement
Spatial analysis will be conducted in ArcGIS to identify and prioritize locations that require
restriping of pavement markings. Separate lists will be prepared for segments and intersections.
Task 4: Verify the List of Prioritized Location
Once the list of segments and intersections is finalized, a student will drive through the locations
to determine if they are suitable candidates for restriping the pavement markings. The finalized
list of locations will be revised based on the review.
Task 5: Submit Final Report
A draft final report documenting all aspects of this project will be prepared and submitted for
review and comment. Upon approval of the draft final report, the final report will be submitted.
