Web Exclusive: Where the Rubber Meets the Road
Developed 20 years ago in Germany, the blade was just introduced to the U.S. market two years ago for testing. Being marketed as the KĂĽper GK-5, transportation agency personnel say this blade makes damage of raised pavement markers on roads and highways almost nonexistent, which can prove costly for Departments of Transportation. Damage to the markers can also pose safety issues because it can strip the markers of retroreflectivity, explains Wilf Nixon, Ph.D., P.E., professor of civil and environmental engineering with University of Iowa and a top researcher on winter maintenance. ,Developed 20 years ago in Germany, the blade was just introduced to the U.S. market two years ago for testing.
