Figure 3B-3. Examples of Three-Lane, Two-Way Marking Applications
This figure illustrates two examples of pavement marking applications on three-lane, two-way roadways.
A legend shows a black arrow indicating the direction of travel in the lanes.
Two horizontal roadways are shown, A and B:
- Example A shows "typical three-lane, two-way marking with passing permitted in single-lane direction." A three-lane roadway is shown with arrows indicating the direction of travel as a single lane traveling west and two lanes traveling east. A broken yellow line is shown adjacent to the westbound lane, and a solid yellow line is shown adjacent to the topmost of the two eastbound lanes. A broken white line is shown separating the two eastbound lanes. A solid white line is shown on the outer edge of the westbound lane and the outer eastbound lane.
- Example B shows "typical three-lane, two-way marking with passing prohibited in single-lane direction." A three-lane roadway is shown with arrows indicating the direction of travel as a single lane traveling west and two lanes traveling east. A solid double yellow line is shown separating the westbound lane from the topmost eastbound lane. A broken white line is shown separating the two eastbound lanes. A solid white line is shown on the outer edge of the westbound lane and the outer eastbound lane.
