This is for the SH 121/ I-635 Interchange Project In Grapevine, Texas. In Texas, standard protocol for construction signage is to use corrugated plastic signs on square tubing stands. On this project, you see some of that, but you also see some signs installed on the permanent-style breakaway post that us cemented into the ground.

The orange signs that take the place of the BGSs at exit ramps are done like this. Outside of the actual construction area, there are several installations using these posts. There are some small BOSs, and some route marker assemblies, some of which use used signs.

SH 121 SBFR at FM 2499. This is an odd stand that I suspect might not be approved. Also, who says "KEEP STRAIGHT?"
