They were regular roadway plan sheets with the specific locations and
details of guide and regulatory signage. The District Traffic
Engineering Offices should be famliar with them.
As I said, the question is given their budget problems have they been
kept current?

Actually, my dream would be to have something like this for the entire
interstate highway system.

interstate highway project readily available.

Was I ever wrong.
