Traffic control signs, also known as regulatory signs, direct motorists navigating your parking lots, driveways, loading docks, and entryways. As opposed to warning and guide signage, traffic control signage informs drivers of penalties, laws, and rules that must be followed to secure safe passage for all vehicles.
Traffic control signs must meet regulatory standards set forth by your state’s Department of Transportation (DOT) and the federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Despite the granularity of both agencies’ requirements, a degree of customizability is available from the pros at Image360 San Antonio West.

What are the most common types of traffic control signs?
Requirements for Regulatory Signs
Always check with your state government before deciding on the attributes of the traffic control signage for your lot or loading dock. Chapter 2B of the Manual of Traffic Signs contains charted information on the exact dimensions you’ll need to adhere to for each variation of sign.
Stop signs should only be employed when a less frequented road intersects with a high-traffic roadway. At a bare minimum, one should be placed for drivers exiting your parking lot and merging onto the street.
Miscellaneous signage informing visitors of penalties, such as fines and towing, have more leeway as far as text, colors, and typography is concerned. Image360 San Antonio West can collaborate with you to find the ideal design for signage addressing parking, loitering, smoking, and other concerns.
Now that you have an excellent understanding of the many ways traffic control signs can address your business’s unique challenges, let’s move forward.

Everyone at image 360 was professional and helpful. I've contacted and used other printing providers in the past. I was expecting it to be kind of a chore as I've experienced before. Not with image 360, it was by far the easiest experience as a consumer with a printing company and the final products are perfection. I will definitely be using them again!
