The Road Cat Eyes First Appear in Overhead Viaduct of Rongcheng
Recently, the Fuzhou Municipal Engineering Administration Bureau has installed road stud cat eyes for 10 bridges in the urban area of Fuzhou, and the installation would last for half a month. It should be noticed that the cat eyes installed this time are the 360°reflective amber road studs, which are first applied in downtown of Fuzhou. And in the future, the safety of night-driving will improve greatly.
In the process of installation, the workers punch the ground to get a hole whose diameter is 100mm and depth is 24mm, and the asphalt concrete of left on the hole will be removed. Then appropriate amount of asphalt mastic will be injected into the hole, and put the cat eye into the hole. After the installation, the cat eye seems like a raised bright ball on the ground at night.
The officer of the Fuzhou Municipal Engineering Administration Bureau introduces that it is planned to install the cat eyes on 10 overhead viaducts in urban area of Fuzhou, and they are Doumen Overhead Viaduct, Sierting Overhead Viaduct, Fufei Overhead Viaduct, Tongpan Overhead Viaduct, Yangqiao Overhead Viaduct, Wu Mountain Overhead Viaduct, Youxizhou Overhead Viaduct, Sanxianzhou Overhead Viaduct, Shangxiadian Overhead Viaduct and Gongye Road Overhead Viaduct. The number of cat eyes that are installed will be decided by the length of the overhead viaduct, and they will be installed in the interval of 6 meters. The total number of the cat eyes installed will be over 8000.
The aim of the installation of road cat eyes is to improve the safety of night-driving. The cat eyes can reflect the light of vehicles in the range of 360°, which can delineate the way and avoid the crack on separation guardrails effectively at night.
Compared with the traditional road stud, the cat eyes are much brighter, and the reflectivity of them will be better when the night approaches. And the reflectivity of the cat eyes will not change by the influence of the bend of the road, and the reflective area is two times of that of the traditional ones. And the service time of the cat eye is at least 5 years.
