Custom Hill Grade Signs
The Hill Grade sign should be used in advance of a downgrade where the length, percent of grade, horizontal curvature, and/or other physical features require special precautions on the part of road users.
Rigid signs must be mounted at least 5 feet above grade (7 feet where there are pedestrians or parked cars) for visibility and to avoid windshield penetration if they are impacted. Roll-Up signs must be mounted at least one foot above grade. Use retro reflectorized rigid signs for night work.
