PREFACE
Detailed drawings of the Standard Highway Signs
prescribed or provided for in the Manual on Uni-
form Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), 2003 Edi-
tion, have been prepared by the Office of Trans-
portation Operations, Federal Highway Adminis-
tration, U. S. Department of Transportation, for
use by all traffic authorities, agencies, jurisdic-
tions and persons involved with the fabrication,
installation and maintenance of traffic signs on
streets and highways in the United States.
These drawings are presented in English units as
an alternate to metric dimensional designs. They
are provided to promote uniformity in design
throughout the United States in accordance with
Title 23, U.S. Code, Sections 109(b), 109(d) and
402 (a), and Highway Safety Program Standard
13, “Traffic Engineering Services”. As stated in
the MUTCD, “Uniformity in design includes
shape, color, dimensions, legends and
retroreflection. This manual shows typical signs
approved for use on streets and highways. De-
tailed drawings of these and other approved signs
are available to State and local highway and traf-
fic authorities and similarly interested agencies.
All symbols shall be unmistakably similar to
those shown and where a word message is appli-
cable, the wording shall be as herein provided
unless alternative wording is optional. Most stan-
dard symbols are oriented facing left; however,
this does not preclude the use of mirror images
of these symbols where the reverse orientation
might better convey a direction of movement to
vehicle operators. Standardization of these de-
signs does not preclude further improvements by
minor changes in the proportion of the symbols,
width of borders, or layout of word messages, but
all shapes and colors shall be as indicated.
The format for the English and metric versions of
the SHS has a basis in English units.
02-28-2005
A soft conversion from the standard English mea-
sure has been used. For example, an 18 inch is
now represented as 450 millimeters as opposed
to 457.2 millimeters. It should be noted that the
difference is only 1.016% and any of these layouts
can be applied to any standard English measure
blank size by simply scaling up all dimensions by
a factor of 1.016%.
The signs shall be fabricated in reasonable con-
formity to the dimensions in the detailed drawing
contained herein. It is recognized that there is a
small difference in dimensions between the met-
ric and English versions of the sign details. This
small variation in size between English and met-
ric units does not affect the sign legibility. Minor
Adjustments to legend spacing dimensions on a
sign face will be permitted to achieve design accu-
racy and accommodate reasonable fabrication
tolerances. Small variations in letter height, letter
stroke width, letter spacing and interline spacing
between lines of legend are expected as reason-
able tolerances in the sign fabrication process.
These variations will not affect the legibility of
the sign. Placement of the sign legend on the
sign face in reasonable conformity to the sign
details will provide the design legibility for the
sign.
An attempt has been made to provide uniformity
of specific design details between two or more
different types of signs having approximate sizes.
Additionally, details for arrows and other items
have been standardized as much as possible to
facilitate fabrication of the signs and for national
uniformity.
For word messages, only the overall length and
placement of the characters are shown. Only the
Series 2000 Standard Alphabet spacing charts
may be used to determine overall length.
The spacing between individual character combi-
nations can be adjusted visually to attain the
most satisfying balance. Where spacing between
individual letters has been reduced or increased
the dimension is noted by an asterisk on the
plate dimension detail. Any such change repre-
sents a deviation from the full spacing as sug-
gested in the spacing charts on the following
pages.
For symbol messages, the overall height and
width of the symbol and its placement on the
sign is shown. The exact detail of the symbol is
shown on a grid. All symbols and symbol draw-
ings are contained in the Appendix in Section 6.
Any symbol may be enlarged to any size if done
proportionally. The grid is provided as a refer-
ence to ensure the proportional relationship(s)
remain correct.
The Standard Highway Signs publication pre-
scribes design details for a number of different
sign sizes to reflect the specified sizes in t he
MUTCD base on 3 categories of highway facilities
and Minimum and Oversized as follows:
Freeways - A divided highway with full control of
access.
Expressway - A divided highway with partial con-
trol of access.
Conventional Road - A street or highway other
than Freeway, expressway or low-volume road.
Minimum - For use on low-speed roadways where
the reduced legend size would be adequate for
sign legibility.
C Indicates sign size for conventional road.
Low-Volume Road - A roadway outside built-up
areas of cities, towns and communities that is
either paved or unpaved having a traffic volume
less than 400 vehicles AADT.
Special Purpose Road - A low-volume, low-speed,
road that serves recreational or resource develop-
ment activities or that provides local access.
Bicycle Facilities - Facilities provided for bicycle
usage defined as either in the roadway or a
shared-use path that is physically separated from
motorized traffic.
Oversized - The oversized sign size and larger
freeway or expressway signs may be used for
those applications where speed, volume or other
factors result in conditions where increased em-
phasis, improved recognition or increased legibil-
ity would be desirable.
The sign size tables from the MUTCD are dupli-
cated for each section of this publication to assist
in selecting the appropriate size of sign. The
specified sign sizes may also be found in the ap-
propriate sections of the MUTCD
(http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov).
The decision to use the most appropriate sign
size is the responsibility of the street or transpor-
tation agency or engineer having authority over
the traffic facility. Larger traffic signs are needed
for two reasons. The driving population is aging
with reduced visual acuity requiring larger sign
legends for the signs to be read. There has been
an increase in traffic volumes and multi-lane
roadways dictating larger and more effective sign-
ing for conspicuity and legibility.

Design Guidelines
There are general guidelines to follow in the design
of highway signs in order to conform to basic stan-
dards. Many of these guidelines are mentioned in
various sections of the Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices (MUTCD), while others are derived
from accepted practice in sign design and layout.
Highway signs with standardized designs conform-
ing to the general guidelines (like most regulatory,
warning, emergency management, school, railroad-
highway grade crossing, and bicycle signs), are
contained in this book and are shown with differ-
ent standard sizes depending on the type of high-
way or facility where the sign is intended to be
used.
Although some guide signs also have been stan-
dardized and are included in this book, most guide
signs need to be designed separately because of
the variability in message or legend. For most
guide signs, there can be no rigid standardized
sizes.
Sign Dimension
Message variability controls overall sign dimen-
sions. Whenever practicable, the overall dimen-
sions of the sign plates should be in multiples of 6
inches (150 mm).
The use of a smaller than “nominal” size for the
various four types of roadway sign may sometimes
be justified. For instance, a sign mounted over a
particular roadway lane to which it applies may
have to be limited in width to the lane width. In
some cases, vertical clearances may limit the verti-
cal dimension of the sign. On the other hand, a
larger than “nominal” sign may be desirable where
greater legibility or emphases is needed. When a
variation in the “standard” size is necessary, a re-
duced or enlarged (as the case may be) letter
height, interline, and edge spacing may be used but
should be as nearly comparable to standards as
possible.
Letter Style
Type of letters used shall be those shown in the
Standard Alphabets for Highway Signs book. As a
guide to choice of alphabets, tests have show that,
for any given legend, better legibility can be
8-1
obtained by using a relatively wide spacing be-
tween letters than by using wider and taller letters
with a cramped space.
Sign lettering is normally uppercase letters except
that destination names may be in lowercase letter-
ing, with initial uppercase. The initial uppercase
letters used in conjunction with lowercase letters
will be Series E(M) and shall be approximately 1½
times the “loop” height of the lowercase letters.
Use of the Series B alphabet are for street name
signs, parking signs, and other similar signs where
limited breadth and stroke widths are required for
design purposes.
Size of Lettering
For guide signs on expressways and freeways, the
prescribed numeral and letter sizes, according to
interchange classification and component of sign
legend, appear in Tables 2E-1 through 2E-4 of the
MUTCD. The minimum sizes specified should be
exceeded where conditions indicate a need for
greater legibility.
For conventional roads in rural districts on major
routes, the principal legend on guide signs shall be
in letters at least 6 inches (150 mm) in height. On
low–volume roads and on urban streets with
speeds of 25 mph (40 km/h), the principal legend
shall be in letters at least 4 inches (100 mm) high.
Lettering on street name signs should be at least 6
inches (150 mm) high (MUTCD, Section 2D.38).
Supplementary lettering to indicate type of street
or section of city may be in smaller lettering but at
least 3 inches (75 mm) high.
An accepted “rule-of-thumb” to follow for legibility
for signs other than Interstate is to have 1 inch (25
mm) of letter height for every 40 feet (12 m) of de-
sired legibility.
Amount of Legend
The MUTCD states that regardless of letter size, the
legend on a guide sign must be kept to a minimum
to be instantly legible. For example, on
expressways, the legend on a guide sign should
only have two destinations and the directional
copy. Directional copy, not exceeding three lines,
may include symbols, route numbers, arrows, car-
dinal directions, interchange number(s), and other
exit instructions. Conventional road guide signs
should be limited to three lines of principal legend
which includes only place names, route numbers,
and street names.
Arrows
In the Appendix, two sets of arrows are illustrated
for use in highway signs. With few exceptions,
which include guide signs, the “standard arrow” is
for all types of signs. The “Up” and “Down” arrows
are to be used for guide signs and recommended
applications are stated in Sections 2D.8 and 2E.18
of the MUTCD.
Borders
With few exceptions, the MUTCD requires all
signs to have a border of the same color as the leg-
end. A dark border should be set in from the edge,
while a white border should extend to the edge of
the panel.
A suitable border for 30-inch (750 mm) signs with
a light background should be from one-half to
three-quarters of an inch (13 to 19 mm) in width,
one-half inch (13 mm) from the edge. For similar
signs with a white border, a width of one inch (25
mm) is appropriate. For other signs, the border
widths should be of similar proportions but should
not exceed the stroke width of the major lettering
of the sign. For guide signs, smaller than 6 feet by
10 feet (1,800 x 3,000 mm), a width of approxi-
mately 1¼ inch (19 mm) may be used; for those
exceeding 6 feet by 10 feet (1800 mm x 3000 mm),
the border should be 2 inches (50 mm) wide; and
for unusually large signs, a border of 3 inches (75
mm) wide is appropriate.
The corners of all sign borders shall be rounded
and, where practicable, the corners of the sign
panels should also be rounded to fit the border,
except for STOP signs. On guide signs, corner radii
of sign borders should be approximately one-eight
of the lesser side dimension except that the radii
should not exceed 12 inches (300 mm) on any
sign. The area outside the corner radius on large
guide signs may need to be trimmed.
8-2
Spacing
Interline spacing should be approximately three-
fourths the average of capital or uppercase letter
heights in adjacent lines of letters.
The spacing to the top and bottom borders should
be approximately equal to the average of the letter
height of the adjacent line of letters. The lateral
spacing to the vertical borders should be essen-
tially the same as the height of the largest letter.
Spacing between words, words and arrow, a letter
and arrow, or a word and number in a line copy
should be approximately 1 to 1½ times the upper-
case letter height used in that line of copy.
An example in the design of a guide sign using the
above guidelines is shown on the following pages.
Diagrammatic Signs
Design of diagrammatic signs follow the same prin-
ciples and guidelines previously covered plus addi-
tional guidelines necessary for the details related
to the graphic components. Diagrammatic signs
shall be designed in accordance with the following
criteria:
1. The graphic legend shall be of a plan view show-
ing a simplified off-ramp arrangement.
2. Only one destination may be shown for each
arrowhead, with a maximum of two destinations
per sign.
3. The graphic should not depict deceleration
lanes. A black on yellow “EXIT ONLY” panel
should be used to supplement a lane drop graphic.
4. The shaft for the exit ramp movement should
be shorter than, but not separated from, the
through movement graphic.
5. Arrow shafts should contain lane lines where
appropriate and route shields shall not be used as
a substitute for arrowheads.
6. Route shields, cardinal directions, and destina-
tions should be clearly related to the arrowhead,
and the arrowhead should point toward the route
shield for the off movement.
7. The cardinal direction should generally be
placed adjacent to the route shield and the destina-
tion should be placed below and justified with the
route shield.
8. Exit number panels should be located toward
the top left edge of the sign for a left exit and to-
ward the top right edge for right exits.
The above guidelines were based upon the results
of a research project conducted by the Federal High-
way Administration. This research generated ideals
for the various diagrammatic design features.

These ideal features have been modified so that
more economical designs could not be obtained.
Specific design standards for graphic components
are presented in the table below and other recom-
mended features are shown in the design illustra-
tions in the following pages. The illustrations
shown were designed through a trial and error pro-
cedure and will provide the designer with the
guides and elements needed to design an economi-
cal diagrammatic sign while maintaining a clear
and simple message.

were prepared by the Federal Highway Adminis-
tration for signing and marking all streets, high-
ways, bike routes, trails and other by-ways open to
public travel.
The alphabets were first adopted nationwide some
time in the late 1940's and early 1950's after com-
pletion of studies by the California Department of
Transportation. A modified version of the Gothic
style alphabet was adopted having an openness in
the rounded shaped characters. This modification
provided better legibility and readability for traffic
control devices. These alphabets contained dimen-
sions for each letter (A, B, C, etc.) and a table that
permitted several sizes to be drawn mechanically
to scale for upper case series A through F.
In 1966, the Federal Highway Administration re-
printed the Standard Alphabets For Traffic Control
Devices. This edition contained upper case series
B, C, D, E, E Modified, Lower case E Modified and F
(series A was deleted from this edition). These Al-
phabets were placed on 1/4 inch grids which elim-
inated the need for the previous tables of dimen-
sions. However, the 1966 edition did contain six
tables for character widths and spacings for upper
case letters and numerals. A simplified spacing
chart also was included for E Modified characters.
In 1977, the Federal Highway Administration is-
sued a metric edition of the 1966 Standard High-
way Alphabets in upper case Series B, C, D, E, E
Modified, F and Lower case E Modified. The 1977
edition also contained the design standards for
alphabets, numerals and symbols to be placed on
roadway pavements. These alphabets were placed
on five millimeter grids for ease of use.
The 1977 edition also contained spacing charts for
all alphabets and numerals which specified exact
letter to letter distances to be used when construct-
ing words or legends. Depending upon the letter to
9-1
letter combination a different dimension was pre-
scribed. In concept this approach is correct; how-
ever, it makes this method useable with only the
more sophisticated signmaking software pro-
grams, because the myriad of unique spacing val-
ues can only be reproduced through the use of
kerning pairs. Typically, CAD software applica-
tions are not typographically sophisticated enough
to handle kerning information. Unfortunately, this
limits the use for the 1966 and 1977 alphabets.
This edition of the Standard Alphabets For Traffic
Control Devices contains a complete functional
specification for designing standard highway al-
phabets. Much work has gone into updating the
alphabets. Particular attention has been paid to
make them adaptable to a broader range of equip-
ment and software application tools in use within
engineering departments and sign fabrication fa-
cilities in the transportation industry.
Overview of the alphabet spacing
Spacing for the 1966 and 1977 alphabets was de-
veloped a long time before computers and plotters
would be used to design and fabricate traffic con-
trol signs. Letter spacing in particular reflects this
because the method applied is better suited to man-
ual layout when using die stamp equipment and
silk screen printing.
Generally, a variety of different space values are
reserved for each letter of the alphabet. These
space values are applied depending upon a partic-
ular letter to letter occurrence. This method is ac-
ceptable when a sign is being manually laid out,
letter by letter and measurements are being made
with a scale along a drawn baseline.
In an attempt to simplify this system the FHWA
implemented a procedure which converted the
spacing values into a limited number of codes (see
Figure 1). While this has helped the situation, it
continues to have drawbacks because more than
one spacing value is required for each and every
letter of the alphabet.

Understanding Industry Specifications
Current software industry specifications for
TrueType 1 and PostScript2 format fonts assumes
Parking
that every character will be positioned within a
bounding box and the bounding box will be as-
signed a fixed value (see Figure 2). Within the
bounding box, each character will have some
amount of "white space" to its left, right, top and
bottom. This allows software to place bounding
boxes side by side, top to bottom, or line by line
without needing to worry about the shape and size
of the character or object (see Figure 3).

Line space is controlled by a separate function in
most software and is normally added in an incre-
ment of measure specified by the user. What's im-
portant to know about line space is a correctly de-
signed font will have some amount of line space
built into it to prevent succeeding lines of charac-
ters from crashing into one another.

Updating The Standard Alphabets
In this Edition, a new specification for using the
Standard Alphabets For Traffic Control Devices is
presented. The new specification will make the
alphabets adaptable to current industry software
requirements. It is important to note that every
effort has been made to maintain the same proper-
ties of the existing 1966 and 1977 Standard Alpha-
bets. A uniform stroke width has been adopted for
all letters and numerals. Following is the specific
criteria that was used to prepare this edition of the
Standard Highway Alphabets For Traffic Control
Devices.
Criteria
1. Develop a method of spacing that will
work for both English and metric measure.
2. Retain the letterforms basic shape, stroke
weight and proportion. Make slight
changes where necessary to ensure
consistency of stroke weight and optical
balance from letter to letter.
3. Maintain overall existing spacing of Stan-
dard Alphabets to ensure an easy transi-
tion in the field as it relates to the design
and fabrication of new signs.

4. Develop spacing that will be proportion-
ally scalable and based upon a upper case
letter height of 4" (100 mm). This will erad-
icate the need for complicated spacing
charts and codes which are based upon
discreet letter heights.
5. Standardize the inter-character spacing by
applying space to both the right and left
side of each letter. The objective is to cre-
ate an industry standard specification that
will make the Standard Alphabets For Traf-
fic Control Devices adaptable to a broad
range of software applications commonly
used in engineering departments and sign
shops for standard highway sign design
and production.
6. Add drawings of lowercase letters to all
Standard Alphabets.
In order to proceed, first a departure from the code
based spacing system is necessary. A careful redis-
tribution of white space must be applied with em-
phasis on maintaining the existing spacial rela-
tionships of the 1966 and 1977 Alphabets.
For each letter there are basically three classes of
relationships with respect to spacing. These
classes are determined largely by the simple geo-
metric form that best describes their shape. For
example; first, the letters B, D, E, F, H, I, K, L, M,
N, P, R and to a great extent U all share one com-
mon characteristic. They have one or more straight
9-3
Line space
vertical stems that makes up their design. Also,
they can be thought of as rectangular in shape.
Second; the letters C, G, O and Q are obviously
round and third, the letters A, V, T, W, Y are trian-
gular in nature.
The goal in letter spacing is to develop an ideal
negative (white) space for each class of letter.
When these letters are then juxtaposed, the white
space between them balances with the white
within them to create an optically even (balanced)
tone or flow. This produces optimum readability
and good legibility.
The spacing tables listed in the Series E(M) 1966
Standard Alphabet specification shows the dis-
tance from the uppercase H to other similar letters
(B, D, E, F, H, I, K, L, M, N, P, R, U) in its class to be
1.025" (at a letter height of 4"). In order to obtain a
proper left and right margin, or white space, it is
necessary to first optically establish the "ideal"
stem to stem relationship. In this case a slight ad-
justment was made resulting in a value of 1.12".
This measure is then divided in half and applied to
every character that has a straight vertical stem.
This will ensure that the distance between these
letter combinations will remain consistent.
The round letters are treated basically the same
way. The Series E(M) 1966 Standard Alphabet spec-
ification shows the distance from the uppercase O
to other similar letters (C, G, O, Q) in its
class to be .825" (at a letter height of 4"). To keep
the conversion simple and orderly the value is ad-
justed as previously discussed then divided. The

result is a value of .4" of space which is applied to .560" 3.242" .400"
the side of every letter having this round charac-
teristic. With these two basic values established
for the two most symmetrical letters in the alpha-
bet space values can be built for the remainder of Figure 4.
letters in these classes. For example, the letter D
will receive a left margin of .560" because it is a
vertical stem, while the right margin will receive a
space of .4". The width of the letter is 3.242, there-
fore the total value is (.560+3.242+.4) 4.2" (see
Figure 4).

By dissecting and distributing the space values as
described it is possible to redistribute the white
space and assign each character its own unique
space value. The net result when the letters are set
in succession will be of lines, or legends having a
very close length to those created using the 1966,
1977 Standard Alphabet specification (see Figure
5). An additional advantage to using this method
of spacing is it provides a more even flow of black
to white shapes which helps increase readability.

The Alphabets
The spacing tables on the following pages show
the actual width of each letter (in inches), along
with the space to the left and to the right of each
letter. All dimensions are based upon an upper
case letter height of 4" (100 mm). The lower case
letter height is 2.9" from the baseline. The height
of the round (or loop) letter height is 3" (see Figure
6). Round or loop letters extend slightly below the
baseline and above the x-height of both upper and
lower case letters.

Alternate sizes are proportional (scalable) and can
be obtained by simply enlarging or reducing the
upper case letter (along with its associated width
and space) to the desired dimension.
All letters are laid out on a grid and spaced flush
left to illustrate both upper case and lower case
letter height relationships, along with the correct
inter-character spacing. In order to illustrate these
aspects all alphabets are shown at a upper case
letter height of 2".
