            Figure 2D-6. Illustration of Directional Assemblies and Other Route 
            Signs (For One Direction of Travel Only) (Sheet 3 of 3) 
             
              Sheet 3 of the figure shows three highway intersections. Notes 
                state "Lettering on Destination and Distance signs may be 
                in all capital letters or a combination of upper-case and lower-case 
                letters (see Section 2D.05)." 
                and "See Sections 2D.28 
                through 2D.31 
                and Section 2D.35 for low-speed 
                and/or urban conditions." 
                At the top left side of the sheet, a highway is shown running 
                  vertically labeled "U.S. ROUTE 86" and intersecting 
                  with a T intersection a highway running horizontally labeled 
                  "STATE ROUTE 4" to the left and "U.S. ROUTE 86" 
                  and "STATE ROUTE 4" to the right. The words "TRAFFIC 
                  SIGNAL" are shown in the middle of the intersection. This 
                  figure shows the vertical and horizontal two-lane roadways with 
                  one lane of traffic in each direction. Near the intersection, 
                  the opposing lanes are shown separated by a solid double yellow 
                  line. Farther away from the intersection, the opposing lanes 
                  in each direction are shown separated from each other by a broken 
                  yellow line. Solid white stop lines are shown across the approach 
                  lane on each side of the intersection. The direction of travel 
                  is from the bottom to the top of the figure and then to the 
                  right. There are six sign assemblies shown on the vertical and 
                  horizontal highways, all shown on the right side of the highways:
                  At the bottom of the figure a white horizontal rectangular 
                    white sign with the word "JCT" in black is mounted 
                    above a square black state route sign with the numeral "4" 
                    in black. The distance from the near side of the intersection 
                    to this sign is shown as a dimension of not less than 180 
                    m (600 ft).Further up the page, a sign assembly is shown with a horizontal 
                    rectangular white sign with the word "EAST" in black 
                    mounted above a square black U.S. Route marker with the number 
                    "86" in black mounted above a horizontal rectangular 
                    white sign with a black arrow at a 90-degree angle pointing 
                    up and to the right. The distance from the near side of the 
                    intersection to this sign is shown as a dimension of not less 
                    than 120 m (400 ft). Farther up the page, a horizontal rectangular 
                    green sign is shown with a left-pointing horizontal white 
                    arrow to the left of the word "MILTON" in white 
                    on the top line and the words "WHITE OAK" in white 
                    to the left of a right-pointing horizontal white arrow on 
                    the bottom line. The distance from the near side of the intersection 
                    to this sign is shown as a dimension of not less than 60 m 
                    (200 ft).Just prior to the intersection, at the start of the corner 
                    radius, a sign assembly is shown composed of one assembly 
                    mounted above two others. On top, a horizontal rectangular 
                    white sign with the word "EAST" in black is mounted 
                    above a square black U.S. Route marker with the numeral "86" 
                    in black mounted above horizontal rectangular white sign with 
                    a right-pointing horizontal black arrow. Below this assembly 
                    are two signs. On the left, a horizontal rectangular white 
                    sign is shown with the word "WEST" in black mounted 
                    above a square black state route sign with the numeral "4" 
                    mounted above a horizontal rectangular white sign with a left-pointing 
                    horizontal black arrow. On the right, the same sign assembly 
                    is shown but substituting the word "EAST" and a 
                    right-pointing horizontal arrow.On the right side of the horizontal highway, a sign assembly 
                    is shown composed of a horizontal rectangular white sign with 
                    the word "EAST" in black mounted above a square 
                    black U.S. Route marker with the number "86" in 
                    black. These signs are shown mounted to the left of a horizontal 
                    rectangular white sign with the word "EAST" in black 
                    mounted above a square black state route sign with the number 
                    "4" in black. The distance from the near side of 
                    the intersection to this sign assembly is shown as a dimension 
                    of 7.6 to 60 m (25 to 200 ft).Farther to the right, a horizontal rectangular green sign 
                    is shown with the words "WHITE OAK" in white to 
                    the left of the numeral "18" in white on the top 
                    line and the word "ONESBORO" in white to the left 
                    of the distance "30" in white on the bottom line. 
                    The distance from the near side of the intersection to this 
                    sign is shown as a dimension of not less than 90 m (800 ft). 
                   At the bottom left side of the sheet, a highway is shown running 
                  vertically labeled "U.S. ROUTES 55 AND 57" intersecting 
                  two highways at a "Y" intersection labeled "U.S. 
                  ROUTE 55" as the left fork and "U.S. ROUTE 57" 
                  as the right fork. This figure shows the vertical and horizontal 
                  two-lane roadways with one lane of traffic in each direction. 
                  Near the intersection, the opposing lanes are shown separated 
                  by a solid double yellow line. Farther away from the intersection 
                  on the vertical roadway, the opposing lanes in each direction 
                  are shown separated from each other by a broken yellow line. 
                  Solid white stop lines are shown across the approach lanes at 
                  the intersection on the vertical roadway. The direction of travel 
                  is from the bottom to the top of the figure. There are five 
                  sign assemblies shown on these highways, most to the right side 
                  of the highways:
                   At the bottom of the figure and to the right of the vertical 
                    highway, a sign assembly is shown composed of a horizontal 
                    rectangular white sign with the word "NORTH" in 
                    black mounted above a square black U.S. Route marker with 
                    the numeral "55" in black above a horizontal rectangular 
                    white sign with a vertical black arrow curving up and to the 
                    left. To its right, the same sign assembly is shown substituting 
                    "57" and an arrow curving to the right. The distance 
                    from the near side of the fork in the highway to this sign 
                    assembly is shown as a dimension of not less than 120 m (400 
                    ft). Just prior to the junction of the forks and to the right 
                    of the vertical highway, a horizontal rectangular green sign 
                    is shown with a diagonal white arrow pointing up and to the 
                    left to the left of the word "ZION" and the numeral 
                    "6" in white on the top line. The word "PARIS" 
                    to the left of the numeral "8" in white and a diagonal 
                    white arrow pointing up and to the right are shown on the 
                    bottom line.On the gore between the forks, a sign assembly is shown 
                    facing the direction of travel on the vertical highway. On 
                    the left, a horizontal rectangular white sign with the word 
                    "NORTH" in black is above a square black U.S. Route 
                    marker with the numeral "55" in black above a horizontal 
                    rectangular white sign with a diagonal black arrow pointing 
                    up and to the left. On the right, the same sign assembly is 
                    shown substituting the numeral "57" and a diagonal 
                    arrow pointing up and to the right. Above this sign assembly 
                    is the notation "Enlarged, if necessary."On the right fork of the highway, a sign assembly is shown 
                    to the right of the highway with a horizontal rectangular 
                    white sign with the word "NORTH" in black above 
                    a square black U.S. Route marker with the numeral "57" 
                    in black. The distance from the near side of the intersection 
                    to this sign assembly is shown as a dimension of 7.6 to 60 
                    m (25 to 200 ft).Beyond this sign assembly on the right fork of the highway, 
                    a horizontal rectangular green sign is shown with the word 
                    "PARIS" in white to the left of the numeral "8" 
                    in white on the top line and the word "CONCORD" 
                    in white to the left of the numeral "21" in white 
                    on the second line. The distance from the near side of the 
                    intersection to this sign assembly is shown as a dimension 
                    of 90 m (300 ft) +.  On the right side of the sheet, a highway is shown running 
                  vertically and labeled "U.S. ROUTE 55" and intersecting 
                  a street labeled "LINDA ST." running horizontally. 
                  This figure shows the vertical two-lane roadway with one lane 
                  of traffic in each direction. Near the intersection, the opposing 
                  lanes are shown separated by a solid double yellow line. Farther 
                  away from the intersection, the opposing lanes in each direction 
                  are shown separated from each other by a broken yellow line. 
                  The direction of travel is from the bottom to the top of the 
                  figure. There are three sign assemblies on these highways, all 
                  shown to the right side of the highways:
                   At the bottom of the figure, a sign assembly is shown composed 
                    of a yellow diamond-shaped sign with a black vertical line 
                    intersecting a black horizontal line mounted above a horizontal 
                    rectangular yellow sign with the words "LINDA ST" 
                    in black. The distance from the near side of the intersection 
                    to this sign assembly is shown as a dimension marked with 
                    an asterisk. A note below this sign assembly states "*See 
                    Table 2C-4 for distance." Farther up the page, a horizontal rectangular green sign 
                    is shown with a left-pointing horizontal white arrow to the 
                    left of the word "YORK" and the numeral "1" 
                    in white. The distance from the near side of the intersection 
                    to the this sign assembly is shown as a dimension of not less 
                    than 60 m (1200 ft).At the top of the figure, beyond the intersection, a horizontal 
                    rectangular white sign with the word "NORTH" in 
                    black is shown mounted above a square black U.S. Route marker 
                    with the numeral "55" in black. The distance from 
                    the far side of the intersection to this sign assembly is 
                    shown as a dimension of 7.6 to 60 m (25 to 200 ft). Back to: Sheet 1 | Sheet
