DELETE Paragraph 04.
INSERT the following paragraphs:
Option:
02A In some cases, an action message such as “KEEP LEFT” or KEEP RIGHT” may communicate direction to motorists more clearly than an arrow. In such cases, an action message may be used instead of an arrow. When an action message is used, one additional destination may appear on the sign.
Guidance:
02B An action message should be placed below the associated destination legend.
Standard:
02C When an action message is used on a destination sign, and an additional destination appears, a horizontal separator line the same width as the border shall separate the legends for the two destinations.
02D Where used, the action message legend shall be 4 inches high where the destination legend is 6 inches high. The action message legend shall be 6 inches high where the destination legend is 8 inches high. The action message legend shall be 8 inches high where the destination legend is 12 inches high.
Guidance:
03A The use of horizontal separator lines should be limited to instances where it is deemed necessary to emphasize the presence of independent messages appearing on the same sign face. On most Destination signs, adequate separation of destinations should be accomplished through the spacing of lines of legend.
