Notes Pertaining to Guide Signs These Standards were prepared by the Traffic and Safety Support Area, Michigan Department of Transportation, and are for use by all traffic authorities, agencies, jurisdictions, and persons involved with the fabrication of traffic signs intended for use on all Michigan highways and streets. The guide signs series were drawn by an electronic process. It should be noted that the shapes of the letters and the spacing between them, as drawn by the electronic process, may not indicate the actual appearance of the finished sign legend and the drawings may not be to scale. Indiscriminate use of minimum sized signs is to be avoided. The necessary design information for these MINIMUM sizes is presented as a guide to sign fabrication in the interest of uniformity. Where a need exists, larger than shown signs may be used in the same dimensional proportions. Standardization of these designs does not preclude further improvement by minor changes in the proportion of symbols, width of borders, or layout word messages, but all shapes and colors shall be as indicated. On guide signs, the suggested horizontal distance from the edge of the panel to the longest line of legend is at least equal to the height of the lower case letters plus width of the border. Spacing between words on the same line of legend shall equal the height of the lower case letters in the same line of legend. Horizontal measurement shall be rounded up to the nearest 6 inch increment for plywood signs and 12 inch increment for extruded aluminum signs. Vertical measurement shall be rounded up to the nearest 6 inch increment for plywood signs and extruded aluminum signs. For Overlay, use Stainless Steel Rivets or Stainless Steel-Self Tapping Screws. The spacing on all perimeter mounting hardware shall not exceed 14 inches. All perimeter and vertical mounting hardware shall not be less than 3 inches from the edge of the overlay. When E11-1 and E13 Series signs are part of another sign, the bottom radius and border of the parent sign shall be omitted, and the silver and black borders of the two signs shall join vertically. When the E1-5 sign is part of another sign the upper corner borders of the parent sign shall be square. FREEWAY All legends on guide signs shall be in Clearview font and optically centered horizontally on the sign panel unless noted otherwise.
