Pre-construction Meeting

Most construction contracts involve a pre-construction meeting at the local TxDOT office. For contracts involving pavement markings, specific marking items should be discussed at this meeting in an attempt to eliminate confusion and disputes during the striping operation. At minimum, these items should include:
  • estimated dates when striping will occur
  • marking materials that will be used
  • minimum marking thicknesses
  • estimated striping quantities
  • retroreflectivity requirements (if included in contract).
