From the Preface:
The information contained herein reflects the new and revised sign designs
that have been adopted in the 2009 Edition of the Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices for Streets and Highways (MUTCD). This Supplement
serves as an interim update until a new edition of the Standard Highway
Signs and Markings publication is released at a future date. The sign designs
contained in this Supplement will be incorporated into the new edition of
Standard Highway Signs and Markings. The new edition, currently in
progress, will contain expanded sign design guidelines, the Standard
Alphabets, and updated information for standard arrow designs, pavement
markings, and symbolic traffic control signal indications.
The new and updated sign designs in this Supplement supersede any previous
designs for the same signs contained in the 2004 Edition of Standard
Highway Signs.
NOTES:
If you want to make signs based on what are available in this book, or the previous 2004 Edition, make sure you have Roadgeek 2005 Fonts (or similar).
