Risk Mitigation & Liability Defense

Compliance is Your Shield.

Navigating the complexities of MUTCD 11th Edition and ADA Title III isn't just about safety, it's about protecting your organization from litigation and regulatory fines.

MUTCD 11th Ed.

The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices is the law of the land. We ensure every arrow and line meets federal dimensional specs.

  • Retroreflectivity Minimums
  • Proper Delineation Lengths
  • Stop Bar Setback Standards

ADA Standards

Title III of the ADA requires specific parking and path-of-travel markings. Non-compliance is a major target for litigation.

  • Van Accessible Clearances
  • Slope Depth Verification
  • Universal ISA Symbols

Why Surface Compliance Fails

Most highway facility managers only think about pavement marking when the lines begin to fade. However, regulatory standards change more quickly than the paint. Since the release of the MUTCD 11th Edition, thousands of facilities are now technically out of compliance due to revised night-time visibility minimums and symbol spacing.

The Liability Gap

If an accident occurs on your managed roadways and your markings do not meet MUTCD dimensional standards, your insurance coverage may be contested.

Retroreflectivity Crisis

The 11th Edition introduces a "Maintain" standard for night-time visibility. If your lines don't bounce light back at drivers, they are legally invisible.

TMI Services uses digital retroreflectometers to measure the specific candela levels of your markings. We don't just "paint lines"; we engineer visibility environments that pass OSHA, DOT, and third-party safety audits.
