Title: No State Designation on Interstate Shields Signed With Clearview(?)
Post by: TheArkansasRoadgeek on June 18, 2017, 11:24:04 AM
So, on the I-40 I saw that ARDOT had replaced an Interstate Shield with a Clearview counterpart. But, I noticed that the newer sign (yes, Clearview) had no state designation of 'ARKANSAS'. I know it could have been part of the proposed design, but I haven't (I guessed) noticed it before, until now.

Where was this?  I know they've been (sort of) phasing out the state name for a few years.

I'll be heading to Little Rock tomorrow for a dental appointment at Children's, I'll get an exit number for reference and/or a mile marker.

I've never seen an interstate shield with Clearview numbers.

I'm guessing that the OP means shields posted on guide signs that use Clearview for their other legend.

I know I saw someone here post a couple of them from Michigan. I won't re-post the picture because I think it gave me a stroke upon seeing it the first time.
