So you're saying this installation is wrong?

This also looks like an example of excessive signage for something so minor. Do we really need a sign saying 15% grade on a road like this?

Technically compliant, since it is warning of the division ending ahead.

Last turn off before the highway ends...in 8 miles.

This I-95 guide on Tremont Avenue in The Bronx is cool.

Ok, not really a sign, but close enough.

There are also mile markers along Watkins Glen denoting the route of the 1940's road course:

Never in my wildest dreams would I think my two obsessions (sports uniforms and highways) would collide, and their respective sites.  I am an avid uniwatch reader.

Does anywhere else use these "there is a highway crossing which briefly multiplexes" arrows that are all over the place in PEI?

Wow, nice!!!


The only thing I can think of being remotely close to that are these signs VDOT sometimes use when a secondary route multiplexes with a primary one. This is on US 258 in Isle Of Wight County.

I've seen plenty like that, but had never seen the PEI version.  They're all over the place as a whole lot of the provincial highways overlap very briefly when intersecting.

I'm really liking those PEI signs. I'm not sure if you can even find those in the US. I've seen a lot of signs like the one I posted in the states as well (I should've said the closet to me when I posted it)

LITERALLY earlier today I was looking around Tallahassee on Google Street View and found pretty much the same arrows. I was gonna post it in here and saw that someone else already did lol

I stand corrected! Are there any more there?

Rather unique "yield on green" sign that I spotted in Vancouver. Right outside Waterfront Station, westbound on Cordova at Granville. I walked off the Canada Line, and it was staring me in the face. Never noticed it before, despite having been installed in 2004.

"Yield on Green" signs aren't that unusual in BC (mainly used at unique intersections), but the addition of a symbolic 4-section left turn signal seems so over the top that it's, honestly, brilliant. I assume it was inspired by the symbolic 'no turn on red' signs used elsewhere, which also use a signal symbol (although the standard design for that sign is a 3-section signal).

No idea, I just saw the one there, although I didn't look that much.

I love those little baby USFS shields. I do have an NF 30 in my collection, but it's Scotchlite on wood, not sheet metal.

Teeny tiny text on this one:

That small text belongs on a plaque, not the road sign.

[Scott5114]

What do you want to bet the enabling legislation required a sign with that exact text?

Memorial highway legislation in Oklahoma never just leaves it at naming a route. It mandates that ODOT posts a sign too.

[snowc]

Another good example of a weird sign.

and also a nonstandard sign for an all way stop ahead.

Ironically, having the STOP (well, ARRÊT) text inside the stop ahead sign is the standard in Québec.

What's weird about the Onondaga Nation sign?
