Freeway Entrance Sign - D13-3
High-visibility freeway entrance signage designed for clear roadway communication and optimal driver guidance. Constructed with durable aluminum featuring radius corners and 3/8" prepunched mounting holes, these signs are engineered to meet rigorous Department of Transportation (DOT) and Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) state and federal standards. Versatile D13-3 and D13-3a signs provide essential wayfinding information for road users at entrance ramps near crossroads. These signs can display standard "FREEWAY ENTRANCE" text or include alternate legends like "EXPRESSWAY" or "PARKWAY," and can also incorporate the name of unnumbered highways when appropriate. Manufactured with high-intensity reflective sheeting to ensure maximum visibility and legibility under various lighting and weather conditions.
