PT_City of Elgin_ _Trail Blazer Signage_ ! / 9) 02/9038/09/02 Trailblazer Sign (M-IT10A) Application: Trailblazer signs are route marker signs with a directional arrow which guide motorists in adjoining communities to the Toliway system. The Illinois Toliway Trailblazer assembly may be used on a road leading to the Tollway or as a route confirmation sign on the mainline. Color+ Size: The Trailblazer sign shall have a blue background with a white border and legend. All the elements of the sign shall be contained on one panel. The length will vary depending on the information in the legend. Legend: The legend should follow MUTCD standards. When used to guide motorists in adjoining communities to the Tollway system, the legend shall include TO, cardinal direction, TOLL, interstate shield with two or three digit number identifying the Tollway's interstate number, and a directional arrow. The cardinal direction may be removed if the Trailblazer sign is directing the motorist to a full interchange. When used as a confirmation sign on the mainline, only the cardinal direction, TOLL, and interstate shield with two or three digit number identifying the Tollway's interstate number are required. Diagram + Symbols: The Illinois Tollway logo may be used as part of Trailblazer signs, if used consistently on all signs. Standard MUTCD arrows shall be used on to convey directional instructions to motorists. Layout: Components of the sign are vertically and aligned symmetrically about the centerline in the following order from top to bottom: TO, cardinal direction, TOLL, interstate shield, directional arrow. Placement: Trailblazer signs may be displayed on a non-toll roadway, a section of Interstate Highway System at the last exit before entering a toll section, at the interchange or connection with a toll facility, and at other locations near the toll facility to assist motorists in finding the Tollway entrance. Trailblazer signs may be located up to 2 miles from the Tollway entrance in urban areas and up to 3 miles in rural areas. Trailblazer signs may be placed beyond these limits if it is anticipated that a large number of motorists will use that route to access the Tollway. When used to assist motorists in finding the Tollway entrance, Trailblazers should be placed between 300-500 feet from the approaching intersection. Confirmation Trailblazer signs shall be installed 25-200 feet beyond the far shoulder or curb of the intersecting roadway, unless the Tollway entrance is visible. Trailblazers serving as route confirmations signs on the mainline shall be located 1000' after the entrance gore from an interchange.
