Highway Community Exchange - Federal Highway Administration

The Detectable Warnings (DW) Community of Practice (CoP) provides an external FHWA hosted website to allow discussions related to Truncated Dome Detectable Warnings. This includes construction, maintenance, product evaluations, research, regulatory issues, related technologies - such as pedestrian Accessible Signals - as well as act as a central website for related documents. Participants will also be able to register their membership, as well as set their personal preferences to get a daily update on postings from the previous day. Discussions - which can include website links - can be posted by anyone.
