Section 7 CSR 10-17.040 - Requirements for Tourist Oriented Directional Signing

PURPOSE: This amendment implements editorial changes for clarification purposes.

(1) A qualified entity eligible for Tourist Oriented Directional Signing (TODS) signs shall meet the criteria as a tourist attraction or a motorist service, as defined in this rule, have a minimum annual attendance of two thousand (2,000) visitors in a consecutive twelve- (12-) month period. Signing will be limited to the following distances from the site:
(2) If the installation of a TODS sign directing traffic onto a nonstate route at an intersection is determined to be necessary by the program manager, the program manager will contact the appropriate jurisdiction owning the roadway and obtain written consent for such TODS installation. If the appropriate authority owning the roadway refuses to consent, that qualified entity shall not be eligible for TODS at that intersection.
(3) Where both TODS and Logo trailblazer signing would be authorized at the same intersection, the TODS signs will incorporate the information from, and be used in place of, the Logo trailblazer sign.
(4) Whenever an intersection on an express way is upgraded to an interchange, all TODS located at that interchange and any associated trailblazing signs shall be removed by the program manager.
(5) Only those qualified entities not plainly visible to the driver proceeding on the cross road will be considered for trailblazing signs. When the program manager determines trailblazer signs are needed, all trailblazing signs will be erected prior to erecting the intersection signs.
