Sign Placement

Placement of city pride and TCEQ signs is subject to TxDOT approval. One city pride sign and approved TCEQ sign may be placed at each eligible highway entrance. The signs must be placed:
  • between 300 and 800 feet from the city limits
  • to take advantage of natural terrain so that interference with the scenery is minimal
  • to avoid visual contact with other signs within the state highway right-of-way
  • with a lateral offset greater than existing guide signs
  • without blocking motorists’ view of existing traffic control and guide signs
  • in locations other than hanging above the road.
Controlled Access Highways.
City pride signs may not be placed adjacent to the main lanes of interstates and other controlled access highways. The signs can be placed between the frontage road and the right-of-way line, but not between the main lanes and the frontage road.
