Expansion and Improvements
Ms. Patricia Watkins, Interim Director of Engineering and Construction, will pro-vide an overview of future expansions and improvements to the Metrolink pas-senger rail system. Metrolink is ex-panding its 91/Perris Valley Line (91PVL) with a 24 mile extension to South Perris in the near term. Future possible capacity improvements include double tracking on three Metrolink lines. Metrolink (Southern California Regional Rail Authority) is always working to im-prove its service and improve the safety of the system. Engineering initiatives under-way to increase safety on the system include Positive Train Control, and enhanced grade crossing standards.

The October RSBITE meeting was held at the San
Bernardino County Department of Public Works.
Members are given a tour of the traffic signing
and striping shop to learn how the department is
handling and implementing traffic control devices.
The traffic sign shop maintains inventory of
common traffic signs and distribute to the 13
different road yards in the county as needed. The
traffic sign shop is also equipped with
experienced staff and machines to design and
manufacture custom signs, not readily available
or standard signs, upon request. The customized signs are occasionally needed to handle
special situations, such as flooding, construction, and coyote warnings to name a few. For
mass production of signs, the county sends the production request to sign manufacturers.
Any signs that were removed or replaced will be salvaged and refurbished by a contracted
company.
Within the warehouse, in a separate compartment, the department maintains another
inventory of paint and thermos materials to be used for road striping. The department staffs
provided a 10 minutes demonstration on how the road striping is implemented by the stencil
truck with paint or thermoplastic materials.
For paint stripe, it is usually 15-20mm thick, and beads can be added for reflective effect. In
a typical California weather, the paint can be ready for use in 20 minutes, but it has a very
short life span in comparison to thermoplastic material. The thermoplastic stripe is around
90 mm thick, dries quicker than paint, and it last about 3 to 4 years, but the cost is higher
than the paint material.
