Disclosed are improved snowplowable pavement markers held fixedly to a roadway by adhesive. The markers include a holder and at least one transversely arranged reflector to retroreflect incident light from headlights of approaching vehicles. The holders have a pocket for supporting the reflector. One or more through openings having angled sides are defined in the bottom of the pocket so that when the marker is installed in an adhesive bed on the pavement, adhesive flows into contact with the holder and the bottom of the reflector to simultaneously affix both to the pavement. Reflectors may be replaced by simply chiseling an old reflector out of the holder pocket to create a flat bottom surface in the pocket to which a bead of mastic adhesive is applied and a new reflector is subsequently installed. This new marker construction applies to both raised and recessed snowplowable pavement markers.
