Section 3: Overlapping Routes

Introduction

In some cases, a roadway will have two T intersections that are separated by a distance of a few hundred feet. This condition is referred to as offset intersections. This configuration makes the signing on the through roadway more difficult due to the overlapping routes and basic geometric configuration. Figure 7-14 illustrates sign placement for this situation.
