This Slides Sign uses informational messages or images for traffic and pedestrian safety concern. A Slides Sign is a useful tool to help protect the health and safety on roadways, but is not a substitute for required protective measures for eliminating or reducing hazards.
Compliance
Section 2C.109 FALLEN ROCK ZONE and SLIDES Signs
Option
- The FALLEN ROCK ZONE (NYW4-14) and SLIDES (NYW4-15) signs may be used, as necessary, to warn of roadway sections where rocks fallen from a side slope or slides of soil, rock, or other material may obstruct the roadway or shoulder, or otherwise affect normal traffic flow.
Guidance
- The FALLEN ROCK ZONE and SLIDES signs should be removed when the condition stabilizes, or is corrected, and future incidents involving fallen rocks or slides are considered unlikely.
- The FALLEN ROCK ZONE and SLIDES signs should be supplemented with Distance plaques where the roadway section is 1000 feet or longer. Additional FALLEN ROCK ZONE and SLIDES signs, supplemented with Distance plaques stating the distance to the end of the section, should be placed at suitable locations (for example, beyond intersections), and at appropriate intervals, in long sections. Where such additional sign is placed within 1000 feet of the end of the section, the Distance plaque should be omitted.
