Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices Introduction
INSERT the following paragraphs:
Standard:
22A The target compliance dates for certain signs disallowed by the New York State Supplement, but allowed by the MUTCD, shall be as follows:
Section 2B.32 Keep Right and Keep Left Signs (R4-7, R4-8) -- removal of R4-7a sign -- September 13, 2017.
Section 2B.47 Design of Parking, Standing, and Stopping Signs -- removal of R7- 201aP plaque -- September 13, 2017.
Section 2B.54 No Turn on Red Signs (R10-11 Series, R10-17a, and R10-30) -- removal of R10-11a sign -- September 13, 2017.
Section 2C.36 Advance Traffic Control Signs (W3-1, W3-2, W3-3, W3-4) -- removal of W3-1a and W3-2a signs -- September 13, 2015.
Support:
23A Section 1680(c) of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law allows for the installation of a noncompliant device up to the specified compliance date if the device is on order, or on hand and serviceable. This allowance should be used with care, as it could jeopardize funding on a Federal-aid project, in addition to adversely affecting highway safety.
