Wayshowing: Sign Standards Manual

Many State and Federal agencies have guides or manuals that are the principal resource used to design and locate all signs. When byway providers want to discuss signing with road managers, the America’s Byways Resource Center recommends that you ask for information on the existing manuals affecting your road.

The Sign Standards Manual is a complete and in-depth manual of design guidelines for many forms of communication by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Numerous discussion regarding design principles as well as easy-to-read illustrations are found throughout the document. The website provides downloadable PDF files of each section of this informative reference manual. http://www.usace.army.mil/publications/eng-pamphlets/ep310-1-6a/toc.htm
