Scale for Strip Map

The scale used on the Road Inventory (RI-1) Highway Log Sheets is generally suitable for the strip map. In some cases, however, such as in highly developed areas, a scale of 1 inch = 300 feet is preferred. In sparsely developed rural areas, the RI-1 scale should be satisfactory. (See Figure 3.4,

, for example RI-1 sheet.)
Two different scales should not be used on the same strip map sheet. If, in zoning a long continuous section of highway, it is desirable to change the scale on the strip map, then another strip map sheet should be used for the beginning of the new scale.
