McElroyDirector, Office of Transportation OperationsReplytoAttn. Of:HOTO-1To:Division AdministratorsResource Center DirectorsFederal Lands Highway Division OfficesPurpose: The purpose of this memorandum is to issue an Interim Approval for the optional use of the Clearview font for positive contrast legends on guide signs.Research on the Clearview font:: The Clearview font was developed through a decade of research starting in the early 1990s. The goal of the Clearview font was to increase legibility and reduce halation of highway sign legends in comparison to that of Standard Highway Signs (SHS) Alphabets (Highway Gothic font).
This research development effort resulted in final design of Clearview font letters in 2003.Clearview font letters were developed specifically to address four issues with the legibility of SHS alphabets.

Clearview 5-W-R has tighter letterspace than 5-W and is designed for replacement of overhead guide signs in which the 5-W is too wide for the specific application. The use of Clearview font for positive contrast guide signs provides increased legibility of highway sign word messages at the same cost of SHS Standard Alphabet letters. A research study by FHWA published in 1994 recommended a 20 percent increase in letter height of SHS Alphabets for highway signs in order to accommodate the viewing distance and reaction time requirements of older drivers. The use of the Clearview font will help in achieving this increase in sign visibility. Therefore, the FHWA is issuing Interim Approval for Clearview so that this application may be used by jurisdictions that wish to do so pending the rulemaking.Any questions concerningthis Interim Approval should be directed to Mr.
