Sec. 14-298-618. Marking of interchange ramps

For exit ramps, channelizing lines should be placed along both sides of the neutral area between the main roadway and the exit ramp lane. With a parallel deceleration lane, a lane line should be extended from the begin ning of the channelizing line for a distance of approximately one-half the length of the full width deceleration lane. White markings may be placed in the neutral area for special emphasis.

For entrance ramps, a channelizing line should be placed along the side of the neutral area adjacent to the ramp lane. With a parallel acceleration lane, a lane line should be extended from the end of the channelizing line for a distance approximately one-half the length of the full width acceleration lane. With a tapered acceleration lane, a lane line may be placed to extend the channelizing line, but not beyond a point where the tapered lane meets the near side of the through traffic lane.
