Smart striping makes your lot safer, smoother, and ADA-compliant.
A well-paved parking lot or road is only half the equation. Without clearly defined lines, lanes, and markings, you’re left with confusion, traffic jams, and serious safety concerns.
At Reid Paving, Inc., we don’t just install asphalt—we finish the job with precise, high-visibility striping that improves flow, enhances safety, and ensures compliance with local regulations.
Whether you manage a retail lot, industrial facility, or residential complex, understanding the role of asphalt striping and safety is key to protecting your property and everyone who uses it.
🚗 The Role of Asphalt Striping in Traffic Flow
Asphalt striping is more than just aesthetics—it organizes space and controls movement:
1. Defines Driving Lanes
Helps drivers know where to go and reduces wrong-way driving or sharp turns.
2. Organizes Parking
Efficient striping maximizes space without overcrowding or causing confusion.
3. Controls Entry/Exit
Clearly marked arrows and stop bars improve traffic direction and avoid bottlenecks.
4. Reduces Accidents
Well-marked lots reduce risk of fender benders, door dings, and pedestrian incidents.
A chaotic lot isn’t just frustrating—it’s a liability. Striping brings order to the pavement.
🦺 Striping and Safety Go Hand-in-Hand
Here’s why updated striping is a critical safety feature for any commercial or public-facing property:
Visible crosswalks protect pedestrians
Stop lines and directional arrows improve flow and awareness
Fire lanes ensure emergency access
ADA-compliant handicap spaces avoid violations and fines
Bright contrast striping reduces nighttime visibility issues
Poorly maintained striping leads to:
Illegal or unsafe parking
Injuries or accidents
Compliance violations
Confusion that frustrates customers or tenants
♿ ADA Compliance: It’s Not Optional
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires specific markings for accessible spaces:
Correct number of spaces per lot size
Proper widths, signage, and van-accessible designations
Clear striping and ground stenciling
Reid Paving ensures every job we stripe meets federal and local ADA standards. We’ll walk your lot and recommend any necessary updates to avoid fines or lawsuits.
🕒 How Often Should You Re-Stripe?
Even the best paint fades over time—especially under Georgia’s sun, rain, and traffic.
We recommend re-striping every 2–3 years, or sooner if:
Lines are faded or hard to see at night
Your layout has changed
You’ve recently resurfaced or sealed
You’ve received ADA citations or complaints
💡 Pro Tip: Combine sealcoating and striping into one maintenance package for maximum value.
