Section 2B.53 - Traffic Signal Signs (R10-5 through R10-30)

INSERT the following paragraphs:

Standard:

02A The DO NOT BLOCK INTERSECTION (R10-7) and STOP HERE ON RED (R10-6a) signs shall not be used in New York.

Option:

02B The U-Turn Signal (NYR3-44) sign (see Sign Drawing SD-R5) may be used to identify a signal face which controls U-turn movements exclusively.

02C The DO NOT BLOCK SIDE ROAD (NYR9-4) sign (see Section 2B.107 ) may be used where motorists, unable to proceed because of congestion ahead, block an intersection in violation of Section 1175 of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law. The word "SIDE" may be replaced by "CROSS" where deemed necessary or appropriate.

02D The WAIT FOR GREEN LIGHT (NYR3-40) sign (see Sign Drawing SD-R5) may be used where motorists waiting at a red signal indication frequently enter the intersection before the green indication appears.

02E The WAIT FOR GREEN ARROW (NYR3-41) sign (see Sign Drawing SD-R5) may be used where turning traffic is controlled by a face consisting of red arrow, yellow arrow, and green arrow indications, and motorists frequently turn when the red arrow is displayed.

Guidance:

02F Where used at an overhead signal, the U-Turn Signal sign should be to the right of the signal face. At a post- or pedestal-mounted signal, the NYR3-44 sign should be below the face.

02G Where used, the WAIT FOR GREEN LIGHT sign should be located near a primary signal face controlling traffic which is starting prematurely.

02G Where used, the WAIT FOR GREEN ARROW sign should be located near the signal face containing the red arrow, yellow arrow, and green arrow indications.
