The STOP sign shall be an octagon with a white legend and border on a red background. Secondary
legends shall not be used on STOP sign faces. If appropriate, a supplemental plaque (R1-3 or R1-4)
shall be used to display a secondary legend. Such plaques shall have a white legend and border on
a red background.
If the number of approach legs controlled by STOP signs at an intersection is three or more, the
numeral on the supplemental plaque, if used, shall correspond to the actual number of legs
controlled by STOP signs.
At intersections where all approaches are controlled by STOP signs, a supplemental plaque
(R1-3 or R1-4) shall be mounted below each STOP sign.
The ALL WAY (R1-4) supplemental plaque may be used instead of the 4-WAY (R1-3)
supplemental plaque.
The STOP sign shall be installed on the right side of the approach to which it applies. When the STOP
sign is installed at this required location and the sign visibility is restricted, a Stop Ahead sign shall
be installed in advance of the STOP sign.
The STOP sign shall be located as close as practical to the intersection it regulates, while optimizing its
visibility to the road user it is intended to regulate. |
