The Federal HighwayAdministration Manual of Standard Highway Signs lists most of the orange background signs commonly used inconstruction zones with a beginning sign code of "W". However, there are signs with other background colorslisted in the Manual with a beginning sign code of "W" that may be used in construction zones. These signs shallbe labeled with a beginning code of "WO"
The traffic control/stage construction layout details shall include the following notes when appropriate. 1. All signs are 48-inch x 48-inch unless otherwise noted. (This note may be used in place of labeling thesize of each sign. Any other size of sign must be individually labeled.) 2. "WO" signs are the same as "W" signs except the background is orange
