Decorative preformed thermoplastic for crosswalks, transit stops and pedestrian zones.
Overview
What TrafficPatterns preformed thermoplastic is
TrafficPatterns is a decorative preformed thermoplastic. Each sheet is manufactured to the design — a brick pattern, a border, an artist's crosswalk, a community graphic — and cut before it reaches the site, so the placement is precise and there is no spray drift or overspray. Square One heat-fuses the 125-mil sheets to the pavement, and the crossing is open to traffic within minutes of application. Anti-skid elements run through the whole sheet, and the colours and symbols follow the owner's marking standard. It is the system behind decorative crosswalks, transit stop platforms and pedestrian zones across the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island, including the UBC and Musqueam crosswalk on University Boulevard, the Musqueam crossing on Granville Street, the artist-designed crosswalk in White Rock and the Every Child Matters crossing in New Westminster.
