Junction Assembly (Texas MUTCD Section
2D.30
)

Purpose:
 A Junction Assembly is used to provide advance notice of an intersection with another highway. Junction signs are located in advance of intersections where a marked route is intersected or joined by another marked route.
Components:
 The following components make up a Junction Assembly:
  • Standard:
     Junction auxiliary sign and route sign.
  • Optional:
     Cardinal Direction auxiliary sign, Lane Designation auxiliary sign, and Distance plaque.
Where two or more routes are to be indicated, one Junction sign can be used with both route signs, if both route signs have the same background color. Typical Junction Assemblies are illustrated in Figure 3-24.
In some cases, it may be appropriate to provide a Combination Junction Assembly. This sign combines junction information for two or more routes into a single sign. Additional information that may be presented in a Combination Junction Assembly includes cardinal direction, directional arrow, destination cities, and/or a distance to the junction. Figure 3-5 illustrates some variations of the Combination Junction sign.
