Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What are Soft Shoulder Signs?

A.
Soft Shoulder signs are warning signs that alert road users about unpaved shoulders along a roadway. Such shoulders are made of dirt and/or gravel and should not be driven on except during emergencies.

Q. Are your Shoulder Work signs MUTCD compliant?

A.

Yes. Our Shoulder Work signs and right and left shoulder closed signs are created as per MUTCD Section 6F.37. These signs are orange in color with a black legend, as required in Figure 6F-4.

Q. Why are some of your Soft Shoulder signs yellow and some orange?

A.

Yellow Soft Shoulder signs are warning signs that alert road users about road conditions of a more permanent nature. On the other hand, orange signs fall in the temporary traffic control zone device category.

Q. Can I install a Soft Shoulder sign on my private drive?

A.

Soft Shoulder signs are primarily used on public roadways and highways. Local traffic laws and rules may govern their usage. Please contact your local traffic authority for an accurate and reliable answer.

Q. Is it worth opting for the 3M SmartShield POF Laminate?

Great quality sign

I bought this sign because I have undergone several shoulder surgeries and reconstructions on my right shoulder and I thought the humor was just too good. It is very good quality sign and is very easy to install.
