Table 1 of Road Note 27 PDF

Table 1 of road note 27 provides suggested minimum skid resistance values for different road site categories. Category A includes difficult sites like roundabouts, tight bends, and steep gradients, requiring a minimum skid resistance of 65. Category B includes motorways, trunk roads, and heavily trafficked urban roads carrying over 2000 vehicles daily, requiring a minimum of 55. Category C includes all other sites, requiring a minimum of 45. An additional texture depth of 0.65mm is required for high speed Category A and B sites over 95 km/h.
