the crossroads is still clear. Had the left turn been at 90°, the "Axtley" panel in sign 2D would have been higher on the sign and the junction layout would be much clearer with the "Dorfield" panel positioned as in sign 2A. Destination blocks should not generally be placed beneath a route arm that angles upwards by more than 30° to the horizontal.
11.14 Figure 11-9 shows a roundabout with two upward pointing side arms. Sign 3A shows the conventional design. Sign 3B allows the right turn arm to tuck into the destination block, resulting in a slight reduction of the overall sign area. It should be noted that the sign height has been increased to maintain the correct vertical block spacing between the forward destination and the "Dorfield" panel.
