This course is divided into two main parts: the first portion focuses on design considerations, hardware testing standards, and methods, while the second portion emphasizes the correct installation of KYTC-approved devices. The course aims to enhance participants' understanding of the significance of proper installation to ensure optimal performance of roadside hardware. This course runs from 8:30 am – 4:00 pm EST.
