A Technology Transfer Newsletter for Local Transportation AgenciesCongratulations!Also Inside:Durable PavementEdgeHall of FameInducteesJ-TurnConstructionNew KYTCAppointmentsT2017 Graduates!he Technology Transfer Program is proud to announce the graduation of 165Roads Scholars and 144 Road Masters. They join the 2,867 Roads Scholars and2,179 Road Masters who have already completed the program.These dedicated men and women attended classes covering a variety of topics includingdrainage, low-cost roadway safety improvements, and leadership skills. Roads Scholargraduates attended 54 hours of training and Road Masters attended an additional 42hours.Routing BoxScott McDowell with Shelby County Road Department received his Roads Scholar.Scott was a farmer before joining the road department so he didn’t have prior experienceworking on the roadway. “I highly recommend the classes,” he said. “They provided a lotof great information especially to someone just starting out in the road department.”Dan Ison, Shelby County Judge/Executive, was in attendance in Lexington to celebratethe achievements of the Shelby County graduates. He was newly appointed as CountyJudge/Executive and coming into the job he was pleased to see the amount of supportand training made available to local governments. “I can’t overstress the constant needfor training,” Judge Ison said. “Some of our employees are going back to work afterretirement so this training has been a great opportunity for them.”www.kyt2.comGraduations were held at Rough River Dam State Resort Park, and the Embassy Suitesin Lexington. Patty Dunaway, State Highway Engineer for the Kentucky TransportationCabinet at the time, presided over the graduations and presented certificates at bothgraduations.1-800-432-0719Vol. 34, No. 1Winter 2018Additional information on the Roads Scholar and Road Master training program andgraduation photos can be found on our website at www.kyt2.com.Graduation, continued on p. 4. 4

2017 Hall of Fame InducteesGlen M. Kelly and Harold G. Mays were announced as the 2017 Kentucky Transportation Hallof Fame inductees. They were selected as individuals “who, by their foresight, dedication,leadership, perseverance, and integrity, have significantly enhanced transportation system in theCommonwealth.”Glen M. Kelly, a native of Danville, has more than 50 years of experience as atransportation engineer. Glen attended the University of Kentucky under the HighwayScholarship Program. Following graduation, he accepted a position in the RoadwayDesign Unit in the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet’s Lexington District Office. In1983, he was promoted to the State Highway Engineers Office, assuming statewideresponsibility for all preconstruction activities. Glen retired in June 1992 as ActingState Highway Engineer and Assistant State Highway Engineer for Preconstruction.In July 1992, Glen joined Presnell Associates, now Qk4, in Louisville, as SeniorVice President for Transportation. Major transportation projects directed by Glenat Qk4 include the Industrial Parkway, the US 119 Pine Mountain Design Buildreconstruction, and the Kennedy Interchange Reconstruction Section of the recentlycompleted Louisville-Southern Indiana Ohio River Bridges mega-project.In 2017, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet added the DurablePavement Edge to their Standard Specifications for Road and BridgeConstruction. The supplemental specification, 403.03.14, reads:“The contractor will have the option to pave roadway shouldersmonolithically with mainline pavement or by separate operation. However,if the shoulder is placed monolithically, with the mainline material, theDurable Pavement Edge shoe shall be used for the placement of the asphalt.For divided highways, the Durable Pavement Edge must be added to bothmedian and outside bituminous shoulders when the paved shoulder width is6 feet or narrower.”Glen M. KellyGlen married his high school sweetheart, Donna, in 1969. Glen and Donna have two children: Taylorand Jon. Their immediate family also includes daughters-in-laws Natalie and Emily and grandchildrenKatherine, Patrick and Carrie. When not spending time with the grandchildren, they enjoy golf, gardeningand attending UK football and basketball games.Harold G. Mays began his working career in 1960 after he graduated from theUniversity of Kentucky. He started with the Kentucky Department of Highways in theLexington District Division of Construction but soon transferred to the Division ofMaterials in Frankfort. In November 1964, he was named the Director of the MaterialsDivision and played an integral part in modernizing and updating their policies andprocedures.In 1969, Harold became the Executive Director of the Kentucky Crushed StoneAssociation where he worked to secure reasonable regulations for the industry from theAir Pollution Commission.Durable Pavement Edge Added toKYTC Standard SpecificationsThe Durable Pavement Edge, also known as the Safety Edge, is a simplebut highly effective solution to reduce crashes on rural two-lane roadways.Instead of a vertical drop-off, the Durable Pavement Edge shapes the edge ofpavement to 30 degrees. This angle provides a safer roadway edge that allowsdrivers to re-enter the paved road safety. The Durable Pavement Edge alsoimproves pavement density, which makes the edge durable.The Durable Pavement Edge improves the short and long-term safety ofthe roadway. Studies show that severe crashes often occur when a driverattempts to steer the tires back onto the pavement at an edge that is nearlyvertical. The research shows that virtually all drivers can recover, even athigh speeds, when the pavement edge is a 30 degree wedge.The cost to use the Durable Pavement Edge is minor for hot-mix asphalt. It is calculated to be less thanone percent additional material. The cost does depend somewhat on the specific design and constructionparameters, but typically the Durable Pavement Edge process compacts loose asphalt that otherwise mightbreak off.Harold G. MaysIn 1971 he left the Crushed Stone association to join the firm of Harrod-Carter and the Robert L. CarterCompany. In 1984 he purchased the company and later changed the name to the H. G. Mays Corporation.Harold G. Mays has been immersed in the construction industry in Kentucky for over 50 years. Throughouthis long and successful career, Harold Mays has made a pronounced impact on the transportation systemthroughout Kentucky.The inductees were honored on January 18 at the opening luncheon of the Kentuckians for BetterTransportation conference held at the Marriott Griffin Gate Resort in Lexington.A Durable Pavement Edge can be a costly investment for local governments that are on a tight budget.However, the Technology Transfer Program (T2) has a Safety Edge Shoe that can be borrowed by any localpublic agency in Kentucky through the Equipment Loan Program. There is no cost to borrow equipmentthrough this program however, the agency is responsible for shipping or delivering the equipment back to T2.Other items that are available through the Equipment Loan Program are a ball bank indicator, calibrationsign standards kit, comparison panel standards kit, digital level, and retroreflectometer.Visit our website at sfer-equipment-loan-program tolearn more about the Equipment Loan Program or to submit an online request form.For additional questions or to submit a request for equipment by phone, please call us at 800-432-0719.For additional information on the Hall of Fame or to see a complete list of inductees, portation-hall-of-fame/.2THE LINK, Kentucky Transportation Center, Technology Transfer ProgramVol. 34, No. 1, 2018Vol. 34, No. 1, 2018THE LINK, Kentucky Transportation Center, Technology Transfer Program3

Submit your safety,engineering or other road questions to us and we will consult an engineer within the KentuckyTransportation Center to find an answer for you. Questions can be emailed toamy.terry@uky.edu or mailed to Ask an Engineer, Kentucky Transportation Center,176 Raymond Building, Lexington, KY 40506.* Indicates Roads Scholar courseQuestion: What is a Road Diet and why would I choose toimplement it?Answer: A Road Diet is a roadway reconfiguration usedto increase safety and livability at a low cost. ImplementingRoad Diets improves mobility and accessibility for all users,including pedestrians, bicyclists, and public transportationpassengers. Road Diets come in different configurations.The most common configuration turns a four-lane road (twolanes each direction) into a two-lane road with a left-turnlane in the middle.Road Diets are often used as a traffic calming measure.Transportation departments and engineers will considerRoad Diets if a stretch of road has a lot of crashes or incitesspeeding, especially in sensitive areas like school zones oraround parks.For additional information on Road Diets, visit FHWA Road Diets at https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/road diets/.This electronic newsletter informs you of upcoming workshops, conferences,and training events as well as highlights areas of interest in the transportationworld.Don’t miss out on receiving this informative resource!Sign up online at www.kyt2.com/publications.**Indicates Central Standard Time ZoneMarch1The Americans with Disabilities Act.
