1. Passing zones shall not be less than 430 feet or 10skips long (with 11 gaps).

2. Traffic patterns are laid out using the basic “H” pattern.Use only the patterns on pages 8 & 9.

3. All travel lanes have an assumed width of 11 feet unlessotherwise marked (center of line to center of line).

• All travel lanes must be properly identified.At the beginning of each end of the new pavement,the number reflecting the lane width should bepainted on the road. (Example 10’, 10’-6’’, 11’,11’-6’’, etc.)

• Any tapering or widening of a travel lane,from the original desired width, shall be properlylaid out to show the appropriate new taper or newwidening along with the new desired width.

4. All lanes, passing zones, intersections, islands, curvelayouts, and truck lanes should follow the designsin this booklet.

5. The listed Regional Traffic Engineers are the onlyindividuals authorized to make changes to road layouts,passing zones, intersections, edge lines, truck lanes, andlane widths within each region.

6. Any questions, concerns, or problems with the layoutsneed to be brought to the attention of the RTE in yourregion. The RTE contact information is on page 2.

DefinitionsSolid White Lines (SWL): Solid line pavement markings delineating the separationof traffic lanes that have the same direction of travel & where crossing the laneline markings is discouraged. This is also used in conjunction with tick marks inaggressive curves for additional visibility. Tick marks are 2 foot dots, attached tothe white line, that are 8 inches wide and gapped 6 feet between dots. Tickmarks run from the PC to the PT through the curve. When tick marks run throughan intersection the solid white line changes to a dotted white line forming a 12inch wide (8 inch + 4 inch) x 2 foot long dot.Broken White Line (BWL): Broken line pavement markings are used wherevercrossing the lane line is permitted. This line is 4 inches in width, with 10 foot longpainted lines separated by 30 foot long gaps. On the freeway they would be 6inch lines, 15 feet long with 25 foot gaps.Dotted White Line (DWL): A dotted lane line provides guidance or warning of adownstream change in lane function. A dotted line for lane extensions within anintersection should consist of 2 foot line segments and 6 foot gaps (1:3 ratio).A dotted line separating an auxiliary lane between two freeway interchangeor exit ramps involving lane drops should consist of 3 foot line segments and9 foot gaps. Dotted white lane lines that are used for lane drop markings andthat are used as a lane line separating through lanes from auxiliary lanes shouldconsist of line segments that are 3 feet in length separated by 9 foot gaps. A lanedrop marking used in advance of lane drops at freeway/expressway exit rampsshould begin at least 1/2 mile in advance of the theoretical gore. A dotted whiteline marking shall be used as the lane line to separate a through lane thatcontinues beyond the interchange or intersection from an adjacent lane under thefollowing conditions:A) A deceleration or acceleration lane,B) A through lane that becomes a mandatory exit or turn lane,C) An auxiliary lane 2 miles or less in length between an entrance ramp and anexit ramp,D) An auxiliary lane 1 mile or less in length between two adjacent intersections,E) Dotted line on a curve through an intersection.Two Solid White Lines (2SWL): A white, double line between travel lanes thatstrongly limits crossing. This is the most restrictive white lane lines. An exceptionto crossing this line would be to enter the roadway from a drive or entrance. Thisline consists of two parallel lines, 4 inches in width separated by a 4 inch gap.Stop Bar: Stop lines/bars shall consist of solid white lines, 24” wide,extending across approach lanes to indicate the point at which the stop isintended or required to be made.

Two Solid Yellow Lines (2SYL): A yellow, double line on the farthest leftacceptabletravel lane that generally prohibits crossing. This is the most restrictive yellowlane line. An exception to crossing the line would be to enter a drive or entranceon the left side of the highway. This line consists of two parallel lines, 4 inches inwidth separated by a 4 inch gap.Two Dotted Yellow Lines (2DYL): A dotted yellow line on the farthest leftacceptable travel lane that provides guidance or warning of a downstreamchange in lane function, namely a transition to a solid double yellow line.This line consists of two parallel lines 4 inches in width, with 2 foot long paintedlines separated by 6 foot long gaps, with 4 inches separating one line from theadjoining parallel line.Solid Yellow Line (SYL): A yellow line to the left of the acceptable travel lane thatgenerally prohibit crossing. Some examples of this line would be on the freewaybetween the left through lane & the center median, to the left of a right turn onan off-ramp splitter island, left side of an off-ramp after the gore, non-freewaywould be around a splitter island. An exception to crossing this line would be toenter a drive or entrance on the left side of the highway. The line is 4 inches wide (6 inches on freeways), except in rare occasions 12”.Broken Yellow Line (BYL): Part A) A yellow broken line on the farthest leftacceptable normal travel lane and indicates a permissive condition allowingshort term crossing of the line when conditions permit. This line is 4 inches inwidth, with 10 foot long painted dashes separated by 30 foot long gaps (15 foot dashes seperated by 25 foot long gaps on freeway applications).Part B) A yellow broken line that indicates a permissive conditionallowing short term crossing of the line when conditions permit. Typically usedin two-way left-turn lanes in conjunction with a solid yellow edge line.Dotted Yellow Line (DYL): A yellow dotted line on the farthest left acceptabletravel lane that provides guidance or warning of a downstream change in lanefunction or lane extensions within an intersection, namely a solid yellow line.This yellow line is 4 inches wide ( or 6 inch width for emphasis), 2 foot longpainted dots separated by 6 foot long gaps (1:3 ratio).Cross Hatching Yellow (YCH): Yellow lines 45° to centerline painted from left toright (perspective of starting near the opposing lane & coming at a 45° angletoward the direction of travel). Lines are 12” wide (25 - 40 MPH) & 24” wide(40 mph & greater) & spaced at 1 foot per mile per hour of the posted speed.(i.e.: 45 MPH speed limit translates to 45 foot spacing) being measured upstation(leading end to leading end or trailing end to trailing end).Cross Hatching White (WCH): White lines 45° to a theoretical mid point linethrough the hatched area painted in chevron format (perspective of startingon the midpoint & coming at a 45° angle toward the directions of travel). Linesare 12” wide (25 - 40 MPH) & 24” wide (40 mph & greater) & spaced at 1 foot permile per hour of the posted speed. (i.e.: 45 MPH speed limit 45 foot spacing)being measured upstation (leading end to leading end).

Final centerline markings are to be placed where the centerline will be striped. The striping truck may need to stripe from either direction, depending upon the direction of the sun. Marks must be placed on the high point (“center line joint”) because marks under the tire of the striping truck cannot be seen by the operator. One foot off the centerline joint is not acceptable.

Lane Designation Layout

A third arrow may be added when a through lane becomes a turn lane or at the leading end of an auxiliary lane (longer than 250'.)

Lane separation lines & designation markings should start 10' past the beginning of the auxiliary lane when the auxiliary lane is longer than 110'.

2' x 4'' line & 6' gap can be used when in a curve.

Through lane becomes turn lane: The line is 8'' wide and the leading dashes (dots) are 2' L x 8'' W x6' gap (length of dots is determined by Region Traffic Engineer.)
