Recommendations and Comments

KYTC	567 Brandi Mitchell Agency	U Undecided	While reflective sheeting is under my purview, barricades are not.	Nov 13, 2020	2818
KYTC	903 Gary Newton Agency	Y Approve	Looks like a product that could be useful and pushed to the next phrase of evaluation.	Jan 14, 2020	2595
KYTC	904 Kevin Rust Agency	Y Approve	Would recommend testing for durability before purchasing.	Dec 03, 2019	2585
KYTC	967 Josh Rogers Agency	Y Approve	I'd be curious if these are cheaper than current Type 3 barricades. Our counties usually have a hard time buying the current ones so if this is cheaper, it may help in getting county structures closed more promptly.	Dec 02, 2019	2583
KYTC	592 Tim Tharpe Agency	U Undecided	This product appears to have relevant use, provided it conforms to KYTC specifications. MASH compliance would be a benefit. This might be something the resident engineer or project manager could use at their discretion when designing temporary traffic control for various projects. It should be compared to other similar products that have been approved for use on our highways.	Dec 02, 2019	2580
