Let me offer my appreciation too Mikeod.
Very few of us make the effort to do the research when questioned on something we said and even less have the ethics, integrity and honesty to post links that contradicts what we originally stated.
Your willingness to do both, tells me that you're probably a pretty straight shooter and whether we agree or not...you have my admiration for that.
I also understand how a locality, who's not actually under the jurisdiction of MUTCD, would choose to adopt
some of their guidelines.
And although TV has not chosen to abide by all of the guidelines of MUTCD (specifically in regards to striping/signage of our MMP's)...that is a subject that could support at least a couple of threads on its own.
So anyway, once again, I do appreciate your honesty, work and ethics/integrity.
