A raised pavement marker (10) includes a rigid reflector assembly (24) that supports two retroreflectors (26). The reflector assembly (24) is resiliently mounted over a base (14) by a resilient membrane (18), which is secured to the base (14) at the membrane's outer edge (20). When a vehicle contacts the reflector housing (25), downward forces supplied by the vehicle to the reflector housing (25) deform the membrane, which allows the reflector housing to move downwardly to pavement level. After the vehicle has passed, the resilience of the membrane (18) restores the reflector assembly (24) to its raised position. Methods for installing and removing the pavement marker (10) are disclosed.

Ce plot rétroréfléchissant (10) pour chaussée comprend un ensemble réflecteur rigide (24) supportant deux rétroréflecteurs (26). Cet ensemble réflecteur (24) est monté de façon élastique sur une base (14) au moyen d'une membrane élastique (18), elle-même fixée à la base (14) au niveau de son extrémité extérieure (20). Lorsqu'un véhicule entre en contact avec le boîtier (25) du réflecteur, les forces du véhicule s'exerçant vers le bas, sur le boîtier (25), déforment la membrane, ce qui permet au boîtier d'être déplacé vers le bas et mis à niveau avec la chaussée. Après le passage du véhicule, l'élasticité de la membrane (18) fait reprendre à l'ensemble réflecteur (24) la position saillante.
