Section 3B.06 - Edge Line Pavement Markings

Standard:

01 If used, edge line pavement markings shall delineate the right or left edges of a roadway.

02 Except for dotted edge line extensions (see Section 3B.08), edge line markings shall not be continued through intersections or major driveways.

03 If used on the roadways of divided highways or one-way streets, or on any ramp in the direction of travel, left edge line pavement markings shall consist of a normal solid yellow line to delineate the left-hand edge of a roadway or to indicate driving or passing restrictions left of these markings.

04 If used, right edge line pavement markings shall consist of a normal solid white line to delineate the right-hand edge of the roadway.

Guidance:

05 Edge line markings should not be broken for minor driveways.

Support:

05A (DE Revision) DelDOT's Design Guidance Memorandum No. 1-16 defines high volume driveways as having an ADT greater than 400 vehicles per day.

06 Edge line markings have unique value as visual references to guide road users during adverse weather and visibility conditions.

Option:

07 Wide solid edge line markings may be used for greater emphasis.
