Once you have your equipment gathered, you’re ready to head out into the
field.
Step 4 - Install the EZ Belt
The EZ Belt should be placed exactly perpendicular to the flow of traffic.
Apply mastic tape to each end of the belt to start, then additional mastic
strips can be applied to the EZ Belt to further secure it, as shown in the
diagram below. A long strip of mastic should then be placed across the
edge of the belt that is being struck first by the traffic.
Once the EZ Belt has been secured, two 25 ft. mini tubes should be con-
nected from the end of the belt back to the TRAX recorder.
Step 5 - Check for Accuracy
Once the EZ Belt is installed and you are collecting data, observe the traffic
as it is being recorded to be sure everything is working correctly. If possible,
check the EZ Belt periodically during the study to ensure they it has not
been damaged and data is being recorded as programmed.
Upon completion of your data collection, remove the EZ Belt and any-
thing else that may be of danger to the motorists. The mastic may be hard
to remove in some instances, especially in hotter weather. In those cases,
it may be left on the highway and eventually it will blend into the asphalt
from the flow of traffic.
