Laboratory work will be combined with reviews of highway signage protocols, requirements and potential applications that will lead to prototype design requirements for a typical highway sign that should have the potential to improve safety for the motoring public and produce energy savings for the transportation industry. The prototype design will be prepared in anticipation of accelerated environmental exposure experiments and that will also address legibility criteria under various inclement weather scenarios. Upon completion the highway sign will be placed along a highway in West Virginia including sensor instrumentation for inclement weather monitoring and evaluated for weather sustaining availability over the winter season.
