A correlation between skid test values and surface texture measurements was made. The Modified Sand Patch test exhibited poor correlation and poor repeatability. The Outflow Meter test exhibited fair-to-good correlation with high-speed skid numbers on PCC pavements, and this test showed good to excellent repeatability. Further testing and evaluation is recommended in order to establish Outflow Meter requirements for the surface texture of new PCC pavements. Before-and-after studies of a pavement overlaid with calcined bauxite chip seal showed a dramatic increase in skid numbers, but no significant change in the accident frequency.
