School Speed Limit Sign CAD Block
The School Speed Limit Sign CAD Block is designed to meet the MUTCD Standard for school zone signage. This specific sign, identified as the S5-1 sign, communicates the legally enforced speed limit in areas near schools. It plays a crucial role in protecting students, crossing guards, and pedestrians by reminding drivers to reduce their speed during designated school hours.
This sign measures 24×54 inches, ensuring high visibility even from a distance. The numbers on the sign use the font “Bahnschrift SemiBold Condense-b0-i0c0p34,” which contributes to its legibility and compliance. As a result, this CAD block provides traffic engineers and planners with a reliable tool for school zone safety integration.
