Directional <br /> Directional signs provide additional information to help drivers find particular streets or to <br /> direct them in certain areas. Directional signs are required on higher speed roadways and <br /> must be maintained and are sometimes installed on lower speed roadways but they are <br /> not required. <br /> Examples of Direction Signs: <br /> Red Fox Road, Edgewater Avenue, Dunlap Street, etc. <br /> Construction <br /> These signs are installed to move vehicles and pedestrians safely through or around a <br /> construction zone.
