City of Oxnard | Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan A.9 Signage A.9.1. Bicycle Signage All bikeway signage on public roadways should conform to the signage identified in the Caltrans Manual and/or California Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (California MUTCD). These manuals provide specifications, standards, and guidance on types, locations, and consideration of singing for bicycle networks. Commonly consulted signage will include Regulatory, Guide, Warning and Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) signage. The California MUTCD provides the following standard and guidance for the application and placement of signs: A.9.1.1. Standard Bicycle signs shall be standard in shape, legend, and color. All signs shall be retroreflectorized for use on bikeways, including multi-use paths and bicycle lane facilities. On multi-use paths, lateral sign clearance shall be a minimum of 3 ft and a maximum of 6 ft from the near edge of the sign to the near edge of the path. Mounting height for ground-mounted signs on multi-use paths shall be a minimum of 4 ft and a maximum of 5 ft, measured from the bottom edge of the sign to the near edge of the path surface, as shown in the figure below. A.9.1.2. Guidance Signs for the exclusive use of bicyclists should be located so that other road users are not confused by them. When overhead signs are used on multi-use paths, the clearance from the bottom edge of the sign to the path surface directly under the sign shall be a minimum of 8 ft. The clearance for overhead signs on multi-use paths should be adjusted when appropriate to accommodate typical maintenance vehicles. Alta Planning + Design | A-73
Appendix A | Design Guidelines A.9.2. Bicycle Route/Boulevard Signage & Pavement Markings Design Summary Design varies; see following page for additional discussion. Potential Signage/Wayfinding Options (not comprehensive) Discussion Bikeway signage is a cost-effective yet highly-visible treatment that can improve the riding environment on a Bicycle Friendly Street network. Described in this section, signage can serve both wayfinding and safety purposes.
