TRB Webinar: Airfield Pavement Markings—Removal and Temporary Applications

June 5, 2023

Past

Clear, visible, and accurate airfield markings are critical to ensuring safe aircraft operations. TRB hosted a webinar on Monday, June 5, 2023 from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM Eastern that helped airport operators improve the safety and efficiency of their airfield marking projects while reducing the need for costly repairs or corrections to airfield markings. Presenters shared effective techniques and best practices for removing airfield markings and implementing temporary applications.
