Why Are Road Studs Being Removed?

Road studs are an important traffic safety infrastructure used to guide people in the correct direction of travel and prevent traffic accidents. However, sometimes we also find that the road studs originally installed on the road have been removed. What is the reason?

The original intention of installing road studs on the road is to ensure driving safety, but it is undeniable that road studs may affect the flatness of the road surface, especially when driving at high speeds. When vehicles pass through rows of road studs, they will vibrate and even affect the stability of the vehicle, which poses certain safety hazards. Some road studs installed on urban roads are slightly higher than the ground. If the response is not timely when the vehicle passes, there is a risk of causing traffic accidents, especially for two-wheeled vehicles such as motorcycles and bicycles. Road studs installed in the middle of the road are more dangerous. If the risk assessment is too high, these road studs with inappropriate installation positions will be removed.

After long-term use,solar led road studs may become loose or damaged due to frequent vehicle rolling. If the reflective road makers fall off or are damaged, it will not only affect the appearance of the road but also pose a greater threat to driving safety. Therefore, if there is a phenomenon of road spike damage, please remove or replace it in time.

With the rapid development of urban construction, more and more roads need to be renovated and upgraded. In this process, the original road studs may need to be removed or replaced. For example, when the road needs to be widened or repaved, the original reflective road makers may hinder the construction process or fail to meet the new traffic planning needs due to their improper location. Therefore, in this case, removing the road studs is inevitable.

Some solar led road studs are removed because they no longer meet the current urban traffic planning needs. Some sections of the road may have been originally installed with road studs for specific purposes, such as reminding vehicles to slow down or prompting lanes, but with the improvement of road facilities or changes in traffic needs, these functions may be achieved in other ways, so the road studs are removed, which is also to make the road more in line with the current traffic planning needs.

If the road studs are installed on urban roads or near residential areas, too dense reflective road makers will cause noise pollution. When vehicles pass through the road sections where the road studs are installed, they will generate noise due to vibration, especially at night, which may affect the quality of life of surrounding residents. Therefore, some road studs can be removed to reduce noise pollution.
