Section 4: Road Ends

Introduction

Some signing situations for conventional highways are not covered in other chapters of this field book. This section covers special applications where a road ends.

Road Ends Situation

Sign placement for the termination of a highway on the state system is illustrated in Figure 7-15. These signs include advanced warning (Dead End or No Outlet) located at the intersection of the terminating road with a non-terminating road, advance warning (Road Ends) located upstream of the actual end of the roadway, and a Type III barricade located at the actual end of the roadway with Type 4 End of Road markers in front of the barricade.
