  • Font Design for Street Name Signs
    PennDOT LTAP technical INFORMATION SHEET Font DesigN for Street Name SIgns #174 The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has terminated its approval of the Clearview Highway font, summer/2016 which PennDOT had specified as the standard font for freeway guide signs and conventional highway street name signs. Standard Alphabets for Traffic Control Devices, more commonly referred to as Highway Gothic, is now the only approved font for the design of traffic signs. FHWA has not issued a mandate on the replacement of signs using the Clearview font, but all future sign installations are to use the Highway Gothic font. This means existing signs may remain in use for their normal service life but should be replaced with a sign using Highway Gothic, when appropriate, as part of routine maintenance. Highway Gothic is a modified version of the standard Gothic font and was originally developed in the late 1940s by the California Department of Transportation. The font has six configurations known as letter series (B, C, D, E, E (modified), and F). Each series increasingly widens the individual letter sizing and expands the spacing between the letters. D3-1 street name sign with Street name signs (D3-1) and most other guide signs must be Highway Gothic font. designed separately because of variability in the message or legend that limits the ability to standardize sizes. PennDOT Publication 236, Handbook of Approved Signs, provides the minimum requirements for street name signs (D3-1). Additionally, the 2009 Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) states that letters used on street name signs (D3-1) must be composed of a combination of lowercase letters with initial uppercase letters.

  • Chapter 2 SIGNS
    Chapter 2 SIGNS Topic No. 750-000-005 March 1999 Traffic Engineering Manual Revised: November 2017 Signs Section 2.1 USE OF SLIPPERY WHEN WET SIGNS 2.1.1 CONDITIONS FOR USE The District Traffic Operations Engineer shall request the District Maintenance Engineer to erect SLIPPERY WHEN WET (W8-5) signs at locations where it has been determined there is a slippery pavement condition. A slippery pavement is defined when a standard friction test at 40 mph has determined the skid numbers are less than 25. When the posted highway speed is above 45 mph, SLIPPERY WHEN WET signs should be installed when the skid numbers are less than 30, and also one of the following conditions is met: • When the Safety Ratio (Actual Crash Rate divided by the Critical Crash Rate) is greater than or equal to one. • Any downgrade greater than 3 percent. • At intersections with traffic signals. 2.1.2 LOCATION AND PLACEMENT Additional signs may be needed at locations with the following conditions: (1) Horizontal Curves. SLIPPERY WHEN WET signs are to be placed prior to the CURVE sign with an advisory speed plate. The ball-bank indicator provides a reasonable speed through the curve; however, a lower speed may be desired if there are known extraordinary hazards such as hydroplaning. (2) Hydroplaning. Generally, hydroplaning only occurs at speeds above 47 mph; however, excessive runoff across travel lanes may produce hydroplaning at lower speeds. Multi-lane facilities, rutted lanes, built-up shoulders, and downgrades are candidate locations. If excessive water buildup cannot be corrected, then SLIPPERY WHEN WET signs may be appropriate even when skid numbers are greater than 30.

  • Chapter 2D. Guide Signs—Conventional Roads
    201109 Edition Page 151 CHAPTER 2D. GUIDE SIGNS—CONVENTIONAL ROADS Section 2D.01 Scope of Conventional Road Guide Sign Standards Standard: 01 The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to any road or street other than low-volume roads (as defined in Section 5A.01), expressways, and freeways. Section 2D.02 Application Support: 01 Guide signs are essential to direct road users along streets and highways, to inform them of intersecting routes, to direct them to cities, towns, villages, or other important destinations, to identify nearby rivers and streams, parks, forests, and historical sites, and generally to give such information as will help them along their way in the most simple, direct manner possible. 02 Chapter 2A addresses placement, location, and other general criteria for signs. Section 2D.03 Color, Retroreflection, and Illumination Support: 01 Requirements for illumination, retroreflection, and color are stated under the specific headings for individual guide signs or groups of signs. General provisions are given in Sections 2A.07, 2A.08, and 2A.10. Standard: 02 Except where otherwise provided in this Manual for individual signs or groups of signs, guide signs on streets and highways shall have a white message and border on a green background. All messages, borders, and legends shall be retroreflective and all backgrounds shall be retroreflective or illuminated. Support: 03 Color coding is sometimes used to help road users distinguish between multiple potentially confusing destinations. Examples of valuable uses of color coding include guide signs for roadways approaching or inside an airport property with multiple terminals serving multiple airlines, and community wayfinding guide signs for various traffic generator destinations within a community or area.

The NTP projects are administered by a non-profit Transit for Livable Communities and implemented through Bike Walk Twin Cities. 1. Bicycle Boulevard Purpose Bicycle boulevards are low-volume and low-speed streets that have been optimized for bicycle travel through treatments such as traffic calming and traffic reduction, roadway signing and pavement markings, and intersection crossing treatments. The purpose of a bicycle boulevard is to improve bicycle safety and circulation, by providing cyclists a designated travel route as an alternative to or as a companion route to using lanes on higher motor vehicle volume streets. Bicycle boulevards take the shared roadway concept to a new level, creating an attractive, comfortable and convenient cycling environment that caters to all cyclist abilities. Although each bicycle boulevard may vary greatly in specific design features, they will all have the same purpose to maintain a low motor vehicle volume and a low motor vehicle speed street with consistent route signing and markings. 2. Goals and Objectives The goal of the Minneapolis Bicycle Boulevard Design Guidelines (MBBDG) is to establish minimum design standards for bicycle boulevards within the City. The minimum design standards (or basic signing and pavement marking elements) will work to maintain consistency and to create an identity for these types of corridors.
