New federal sign requirements are coming. Are you prepared? Some portions of the new requirements have been put on hold for now due to concerns over cost, such as requiring the retrofitting of thousands of existing street signs in order to remain compliant
The controversial portion of these new regulations is referred to as the retroreflectivity requirement. This would require the installation of new reflective street signs with larger, easy-to-read print to assist drivers in spotting these indicators and warning signs at night with a strict deadline of 2018 for compliance. That deadline for replacement has been relaxed, although the rules will still take effect as of 2015 for all new signage. Other deadlines still remain in place, including requirements for added signage at intersections, merges and other high-traffic areas, requirements regarding genuine lavender ugg australia boots the size of the lettering and the genuine lavender ugg australia boots height and size of the signs. In addition, it is likely that the retroreflectivity requirement will be revisited in the near future as more and more safety organizations call for its implementation in order to ensure the welfare of drivers and pedestrians on the road.
