Abstract

Prometni znakovi predstavljaju osnovna sredstva komunikacije između sudionika u prometu i nadležnih tijela. Pružaju sudionicima u prometu informacije vezane uz ograničenja, zabrane, obaveze i ostale informacije te na taj način osiguravaju sigurno i nesmetano odvijanje prometa. Pravovremen prijenos informacija sudionicima u prometu važan je za sigurnost prometa i njegovo nesmetano odvijanje, a sama kvaliteta prijenosa informacija, naročito u uvjetima smanjene vidljivosti, ovisi o njihovoj vidljivosti, odnosno retrorefleksiji. Kvalitetna retrorefleksija omogućava pravovremeno prepoznavanje prometnog znaka. Tijekom vremena, kvaliteta retrorefleksije prometnog znaka degradira zbog čega je istu potrebno periodički ispitivati kako bi se osigurala željena kvaliteta znakova. Cilj ovog završnog rada je analizirati kvalitetu prometnih znakova na državnim cestama Splitsko-dalmatinske i Šibensko-kninske županije.

Abstract (english)

Traffic signs represent basic means of communication between traffic participants and road authorities. They provide traffic participants with the informations about restrictions, prohibitions, obligations and other information ensuring safe and uninterrupted traffic. Timely transmission of informations to traffic participants is important for traffic safety and uninterrupted traffic flow, and the quality of transport of the information, specially in conditions of reduced visibility, depends on traffic signs retroreflection. Quality of retroreflection allows timelly recognition of traffic sign. During their exploatation, their retroreflection properties is degrading, which is why periodical testing is needed in order to ensure desired quality. The aim of this paper is to analyze the quality of traffic signs on the state roads of Splitsko-dalmatinska and Šibensko-kninska county.
