2 Del. Admin. Code § 2A.20

Current through Register Vol. 28, No. 5, November 1, 2024

Section 2A.20 - Orientation

Guidance:

01 Unless otherwise provided in this Manual, signs should be vertically mounted at right angles to the direction of, and facing, the traffic that they are intended to serve.

02 Where mirror reflection from the sign face is encountered to such a degree as to reduce legibility, the sign should be turned slightly away from the road. Signs that are placed 30 feet or more from the pavement edge should be turned toward the road. On curved alignments, the angle of placement should be determined by the direction of approaching traffic rather than by the roadway edge at the point where the sign is located.

Option:

03 On grades, sign faces may be tilted forward or back from the vertical position to improve the viewing angle.
