Two-lane State Highway Staggered Delineator Posts

The bill requires the Colorado department of transportation (department) to replace any existing highway surface mount or other inflexible delineator posts with staggered flexible delineator posts every 1/10th of a mile on alternating sides when it repaves or repairs an existing 2-lane state highway. The bill also requires the department, when creating a new 2-lane state highway for which its standards of highway construction require delineator posts, to add staggered flexible delineator posts every 1/10th of a mile on alternating sides.

The bill clarifies that it does not amend the standards used to determine whether delineator posts are posted or require delineator posts to be added to a newly constructed 2-lane highway for which the standards do not require delineator posts or to an existing 2-lane state highway without existing delineator posts that is being repaved or repaired.
