Cal. Code Regs. tit. 21 § 2109

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 25, June 21, 2024
Section 2109 - Supplemental Directional Panels
(a) Supplemental Directional Panels shall be located on, opposite of, or at the terminus of an off-ramp, in the same direction of travel as the Specific Informational Panels. As viewed in the direction of travel, the successive panels shall be those for "CAMPING," "LODGING," "FOOD," and "FUEL" in that order.
(b) If either the business premises or an on-site sign of a Qualified Motorist Service Business is visible from any point on the off-ramp or from the terminus of the off-ramp, the Owner or Responsible Operator may apply for placement of a business sign on the Supplemental Directional Panel. If either the business premises or an On-Site Sign of a Qualified Motorist Service Business is not visible from any point on the off-ramp or from the terminus of the off-ramp, the Owner or Responsible Operator shall be required to make application to have a Business Sign placed on a Supplemental Directional Panel.

The Department may require that a Business Sign be placed on a Supplemental Directional Panel when either the business premises or an On-Site Sign is visible from the off-ramp or from the terminus of the off-ramp, if a sign is necessary to avoid misdirection of the motorist because of the complexity of the interchange.

(c) Appropriate Trailblazers may be required by the Department along other public highways as necessary to adequately direct motorists to the business referred to on any business sign.
(d) The Business Signs fastened to a Supplemental Directional Panel or a Trailblazer shall be the same in shape, color, and message as those shown on the Specific Informational Panels, but shall be of smaller size.
(e) Where space is available, a Qualified Motorist Service Business whose Business Sign is not displayed on the Specific Informational Panel located in advance of the off-ramp because permits have already been issued for the maximum number of business signs, may have its Business Sign displayed on the Supplemental Directional Panel.
