Bus Stop Information (NYI5-1, NYI5-2, NYI5-3, NYI5-4) signs may be used to inform pedestrians and motorists about bus stop locations, and to provide information about bus routes and schedules.
Support
The NYI5-1, NYI5-2, and NYI5-3 signs are for use at local transit bus stops. The NYI5-4 sign is for use at intercity bus stops.
Guidance
The NYI5-2 sign should be used where no route or schedule information is to be displayed, or where it is displayed at another location. The NYI5-4 sign should be used to identify the locations of intercity bus stops
Option
Bus stop information signs may be used without parking signs at bus stops where a parking regulation is not required, but identification of the bus stop or inclusion of bus route information is desired.
Guidance
Where control of parking is needed to ensure proper operation of a bus stop, parking prohibition signs should be used.
Standard
There shall be no regulatory messages on Bus Stop Information signs.
Option
The words "BUS STOP" or the bus company logo may be shown within the bus silhouettes on NYI5-1 and NYI5-2 signs. The bus company logo may also be shown in the white spaces on the NYI5-1 and NYI5-3 signs. The words "BUS STOP" may be displayed on the backs of NYI5-1, NYI5-2, and NYI5-4 signs.
Guidance
The NYI5-1, NYI5-2, and NYI5-4 signs should be placed near the front ends of bus stops and oriented to face paths of pedestrian travel. NYI5-3 signs should be placed where they can be conveniently read by waiting bus passengers.
