The Benefits Of Parking Lot Striping Utah

By Barbara Hughes


For persons that own commercial property, it is very important to clearly understand the role of parking strips. They make parking to have a welcoming look and one that is comforting to employees and clients. The strips help to give the spaces a look that is hospitable and attractive. Striping is done by asphalt paving contractors or companies that specialize in that work. In considering parking lot striping Utah commercial property owners should know the benefits.

One of the main reasons to have parking lots striped is because of the safety of pedestrians and drivers that will be using it. When there are well-defined crosswalks, it ensures that drivers and pedestrians are able to watch out for each other and thus reach their destination without any incidents. In addition to that, they will help in directing traffic so that drivers are able to maneuver through the lot. The efficiency ensures less time is spent navigating through lots.

There is maximum use of spaces when marking is well done. When marking is done properly, it would mean the space can have maximum number of cars any given moment. This is because the layout and marking is done in such a way that spaces are maximized. There is also indication of right of way of vehicles. There will therefore not be blocking or congestion caused by vehicles that are illegally parked.

There is the curb appeal that is associated with having lots striped. The exercise will help in maintenance of curb appeal of the facility. Over a period of time, lines that were initially marked tend to fade because of constant exposure to weather elements and traffic. Many commercial facilities re-stripe parking lots after scheduled seal-coating is done. The contrast between black pavements and yellow, white and blue lines will be visually appealing.

With striping, people that are handicapped have convenient access. It will make it easy for them to park. At the same time, any visitors will get directed to a clear path into the building in addition to directions on where they can park. Actually, there is a regulation that parking spaces for the handicapped be clearly marked out and reserved for them.

When there is striping of parking lots, liability for accidents is reduced. It is not easy for drivers or pedestrians to clearly see faded lines. It could result in accidents in which one is held liable. With the strips, there is important information communicated like where pedestrians walk. It is also easy to tell who has right of way. Well defined and visible lines reduces chances of accidents.

The type of strips that are chosen depends on size and layout of the parking lot. In most cases, parallel lines are the most preferred. There however is the option of using diagonally spotted lines. It would be important to create a plan and layout of the space that is to be used.

After markings are completely done, they can go for a number of years before needing re-striping. The fading results from effects of weather like sunlight, rain and snow. When a parking lot has lots of traffic, the fading will be realized sooner.
