2B.40 ONE WAY Signs (R6-1, R6-2)
DELETE Paragraph 13.
INSERT the following paragraphs:
Support:
01A The R6-1 sign has greater legibility than the R6-2 sign, and is generally preferred. The R6-2 sign has an advantage where lateral space is limited, such as in heavily developed urban areas.
Guidance:
11A The use of ONE WAY signs within a roundabout should be limited to low speed locations where the roundabout geometry or visibility of other signing does not make the circulating direction evident.
Support:
11B Using ONE WAY signs on the central island of a roundabout might result in some drivers incorrectly concluding that the cross street is a one-way street; using Roundabout Directional Arrow signs is the preferred approach to avoid this confusion.
11C Where additional information regarding the roundabout circulating direction is deemed necessary, it is preferable to use Roundabout Circulation (R6-5P) plaques (see Section 2B.44).
