2 CCR 601-7 - RULES, REGULATIONS, AND STANDARDS PERTAINING TO LOGOS AND TODS SIGNS

Statement of Basis, Purpose, and Statutory Authority

These Rules establish where and under what circumstances LOGO and TODS devices may be erected and maintained and require that no such device may be erected or maintained unless in full compliance with the MUTCD, § 43-1-420, C.R.S., the CDOT Sign Design Manual, and these Rules. These Rules enable the Colorado Department of Transportation to provide a uniform sign program for LOGO and TODS devices that provide directional information for qualified entities to the traveling public. The statutory authority for this rulemaking is vested in the Department by § 43-1-415(1) and 43-1-420(3), C.R.S. The Department has updated the rules to conform to mandates of HB12-1108, codified at § 43-1-420(1)(a) and (5) C.R.S., which expanded advertising options for small businesses to include all urban areas, and offered the traveling public additional information regarding specific off-highway services. Additionally, the Department sought to eliminate any information already set forth in the MUTCD and any other unnecessary or duplicative language.
