Local Authority Requests for Traffic Generator Signs
Local authorities often request the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to sign for various traffic generators. The following guidelines apply.
Outside city limits:
TxDOT may install signs for generators that meet the criteria established in Table 2M.2T of the TMUTCD on freeways and expressways.Inside city limits:
- Cities may install such signs on conventional highways and frontage roads of freeways, provided they are agreed to by TxDOT and they do not conflict with or obstruct existing signing. (This is presently covered in municipal maintenance agreements.)
- Signs placed by the city must not be attached to existing TxDOT supports.
