MMA Markings for Cycle Routes in The Wyke

Get in touch

Traffic markings are literally everywhere and form the backbone of our road networks, from pedestrian crossings to the double yellow lines we all dread seeing to the dotted lines that make up the lanes of the motorways we all use to travel.

MMA markings are one sort of road marking that we encounter on a regular basis in The Wyke, and they are utilised by road marking contractors for certain particular types of works when thermoplastic markings or other traditional line marking materials may not be appropriate. But what makes MMA marks so unique, and what are the potential benefits?

How much is MMA coating to cycle routes?

The cost of MMA road markings applied to cycle paths varies significantly, depending on the area of the cycle path in The Wyke, how much wear and tear it receives, whether you are just replacing faded road markings or covering an entire new path, and various other variables.

In general, a 15kg tub of MMA cold plastic paint will cost around £150, but the amount of your cycle path that this covers will vary.

Benefits of designated cycle paths

A cycling track is a considerably safer mode of transportation than crowded major roadways. A bike track can lower the danger of crashes, and the frequency of road traffic incidents since bicycles are not competing with automobiles for road space.

As a result, The Wyke will be safer for both bikers and road users, and health services such as the NHS may save time and money. There are many other benefits, too, but this is the most important one for most people's concerns.

Most Popular Cycle Path Colours

MMA road markings for cycle paths come in a range of different colours, as methyl methacrylate MMA can be easily modified to a range of vibrant colours. The most common colours for MMA markings are bright, distinctive, easily visible ones: red, blue, and green.

Black, white, and yellow are usually used for MMA road markings rather than full methyl methacrylate MMA cold plastic coatings for full cycling areas, however.

Types of Cycle Route Coatings The Wyke

Most cycle routes in The Wyke are made from asphalt concrete. Asphalt concrete is a great cycling track wearing course with a typical technical lifetime of 15-20 years, albeit it may not last more than 10 years.

The smooth surface and low friction of asphalt concrete make cycling comfortable and enjoyable, and it is available in a variety of colours. 

To maintain an equal finish, asphalt should always be applied mechanically. On top of this, a range of different paints can be applied, including thermoplastic markings, methyl methacrylate MMA road markings, a glass bead coating, and rubberised surfaces.

Glass beads are an expensive option for area coatings, particularly over long distances, and require a manual application process called screeding, so more affordable anti-skid materials such as MMA markings are more popular. These have a long service life and do not require regular maintenance. 

They also use application processes that produce fewer harmful emissions than many alternatives, making them a more environmentally responsible road surface for urban environments. The MMA application process is simple, making it easy to touch this up in a timely manner on areas such as slip roads where poor marking clarity can be a major safety hazard.

How long Do MMA coatings to cycle paths last?

One of the most significant advantages of using MMA marks is their exceptional durability, which stands the test of time. Traditional line marking materials in The Wyke have a substantially shorter lifespan and, as a result, are frequently in need of repair.

This is not only expensive, but fading road markings can also be a safety problem, especially in low-visibility situations.

The specific lifespan of MMA markings will depend on the specific locations in which they are applied; any road marking system will wear away much faster in high-stress locations like junction markings than on areas that experience very little traffic.

MMA paint keeps its crisp and fresh look for longer than any other informative marking system material, but it will eventually wear down and need repainting.

This is considerably speed based; areas such as car parks where users drive slowly will last longer than areas where users move at high speeds over the methyl methacrylate coating.

Summary

MMA road markings are among the most durable road markings accessible to road marking companies. A mixture of resin and powder peroxide is used to produce their distinct and particular properties.

They have been utilised with great success not just in The Wyke but also throughout the UK.

Because of their durability, MMA markings are commonly utilised in heavy traffic and high-stress regions. The use of this material in areas prone to wear and tear extends the longevity of the marks, requiring fewer reapplications or touch-ups.

Overall, MMA markings are a highly durable material that is great for lowering harmful emissions and offers a fantastic solution for anything from transverse lines in car parks to providing a great level of slip resistance on cycle paths, particularly those on which a high level of traffic is expected.
