Figure 2E-5. Overhead Arrow-per-Lane Guide Signs for a Two-Lane Exit to the Right with an Option Lane (Through Lanes Curve to the Left)
This figure shows overhead arrow-per-lane guide signs for a two-lane exit to the right with an option lane and through lanes that curve to the left.
The figure shows segments of one direction of a vertical highway labeled I-295 at the bottom of the figure, depicted with three lanes, with the travel direction from the bottom to the top of the figure. At the bottom of the figure, the lanes are separated from each other by broken white lines. The broken white line between the center and right lanes is then shown changing to a dotted wide white lane. Near the top of the figure, the center lane divides, and this lane and the right lane (labeled ramp to U.S. 130) are shown separated by a solid wide white line and continuing straight ahead, to the right of a theoretical gore shown with white chevron markings. The left lane and part of the center lane (labeled I-295) are shown curving left, to the left of the gore, and are shown separated by broken white lines.
Three horizontal rectangular green signs and sign assemblies with white legends and borders are shown along the highway, as well as two route sign assemblies:
- The first sign assembly is shown near the bottom of the figure where the lanes are divided by broken white lines. It is shown extending over all three lanes of the highway. It is shown as an arrow-per-lane guide sign, with the numeral "295" on a red and blue Interstate shield to the left of the word "SOUTH" on the top line above the word "Deepwater" to the left of a vertical white line that divides the top half of the sign in two sections. To the right of the dividing line, the numeral "130" in black is shown on a white U.S. route shield to the left of the word "SOUTH" on the top line above the word "Bridgeport" on the second line and the words "1 MILE" on the third line. On the fourth line of the sign, a vertical arrow curving to the left is shown under the word "Deepwater," a two-headed vertical arrow curving to the left and straight ahead is shown below the vertical dividing line, and below the word "Bridgeport," the word "EXIT" in black is shown on a horizontal yellow rectangle to the left of a vertical arrow pointing straight ahead, which is to the left of the word "ONLY" in black on a horizontal yellow rectangle. A smaller horizontal rectangular green plaque with white letters and border is shown above the top right of the sign and shows the words "EXIT 13."
- Just north of the first sign assembly, the broken white line between the center and right lanes is shown changing to a wide dotted white line. The same sign assembly is shown further north on the highway beyond this point. The sign assembly is the same as the first, except without the distance on the third line of the sign.
- North of the second sign assembly, the dotted wide white line between the center and right lanes is shown changing to a solid wide white line. The same sign assembly is shown again further north of this point and in advance of the theoretical gore. The sign assembly is the same as the first, except without the distance on the third line of the sign.
- A horizontal rectangular green sign with a white border and legend is shown in the gore between the right exit lanes and the through lanes. The sign shows the word "EXIT" on the top line above the numeral "13" to the left of a short diagonal arrow pointing up and to the right. A sign assembly is shown to the right of the right exit lane. It is composed of four signs: a horizontal rectangular white plaque with a black border and the word "TO" in black mounted above another horizontal rectangular white plaque with a black border and the word "SOUTH" in black, which is mounted above a white U.S. route shield on which the black numeral "130" is shown, above a horizontal rectangular white plaque with a black border and a short vertical black arrow pointing straight ahead.
- At the top of the figure, a sign is shown to the right of the lanes that curve to the left. It is a red and blue Interstate route shield on which the white numeral "295" is shown. Above it, a plaque is shown with the word "SOUTH" in white letters and a white border on a blue background.
