Introduction

The figures in this chapter indicate the placement of signs located on the approach to an intersection.
  • Special Note on Approach Placement Distances:
     A given sign type should remain approximately the same distance from the intersection in all applications. For example, the Junction assembly should always be 1625-1800 ft from the intersection when the speed limit is ≥ 45 mph. A given type of sign should not be moved closer to the intersection when a sign type closer to the intersection is not used. For example, the Junction assembly should not be moved closer to the intersection if the Advance Route Turn assembly is not used.
