In the evolving landscape of road infrastructure and urban traffic management, IRC Code 35:2015 stands as a cornerstone for standardizing road markings across India. Issued by the Indian Roads Congress (IRC), this revised code is pivotal for engineers, planners, and policymakers aiming to enhance road safety, ensure lane discipline, and facilitate the orderly movement of vehicles and pedestrians.
Whether you're a road engineer or simply interested in how India's road systems are designed, this guide dives deep into IRC:35’s detailed framework.
IRC Code 35, titled "Code of Practice for Road Markings", provides uniform specifications for the design, application, and performance monitoring of pavement markings on Indian roads. Initially released in 1970 and revised multiple times since, the most recent update in 2015 aligns with modern traffic demands and incorporates the latest in marking materials and techniques.
The code applies to all types of roads—urban and rural—and recommends practices for:
Color coding ensures clear communication to road users:
IRC:35 outlines specific application areas:
Road studs are reflective devices installed to:
Types:
Proper spacing and placement are critical to performance.
Markings must be visible from a minimum of two seconds of travel time based on vehicle speed. Retroreflectivity is achieved using glass beads embedded in the marking material. Key factors affecting visibility include:
Performance criteria include:
The code mandates:
IRC Code 35 ensures road markings in India meet international standards while catering to unique national traffic conditions. By establishing consistent, visible, and durable marking systems, the code plays a crucial role in road safety, traffic efficiency, and infrastructure quality.
For engineers, urban planners, and authorities, adhering to IRC:35 is not just compliance—it’s a commitment to building smarter, safer roads.
