highway signage

Freeway directional displays

Highway signage is the system of signs posted along roads to guide, warn, and inform drivers.

This includes directional signs, speed limits, exit markers, and hazard warnings.

The term treats signs collectively as infrastructure rather than as individual objects: The state is updating highway signage to meet federal standards.
