Median Curb Markings

Question #1: Has the City of Dallas considered painting median curb markings on roads, particularly near median cuts, an d on street lines - especially to assist with left hand turns
at night?

 
Response:  We install reflective buttons in front of the median noses. We rarely paint curbs due to funding limitations.  We typically limit curb painting to problem areas with sharp curves or substandard lane transitions.

We have started to install yellow edgelines along the inside of the median lane.  This is on a limited basis due to budget constraints. 
 

Also, almost all of our thoroughfares have street lights in the medians spaced every 300 feet - this helps illuminate the median openings.
