Damien,

Thanks for being so pro-active on supporting the BB, especially as an ex-officio! Apparently, you're the only member willing to work on the bike route signs so if you're willingly to do everything to get them ordered and delivered, go for it. Otherwise, your work would be to no avail for our Sep 4 sign delivery deadline. You can now access the bike route map on bikemorgantown.com.

I spoke with Jeff about this the other day and I am working on getting cost for "Bike Route" and "Share the Road" signs from a couple different vendors. Do you still what this Info?

Chet,

Thanks for taking the lead on getting the bike route map printed. Apparently nobody wants to work on getting the signs so it looks like we'll apply our remaining resources to printing the bike route map. Besides determining the sizes, identifying vendors and estimating costs, what else has to be done? On what will you need help? I hope some other members will chip in.

Chip makes a good argument. What does everyone else think?

I can still spec out the printing costs for a couple different sizes.

I meant to provide this link to the section of the MUTCD that addresses bike route signs: http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/pdfs/2009/part9.pdf . I've also attached figure 9B-4 from that section that shows the signs. We probably need a bunch of D11-1 and M5's and M6's. That section at the link also specifies sign size, where they must be located, etc.
