... There are no pavement markings within the paved portion of the gore. ARIZONA For an entrance ramp with a tapered acceleration lane, gore striping on both the entrance ramp and the mainline roadway starts 50 ft before the point where the gore between the entrance ramp and the mainline roadway becomes paved and continues until the ramp and the mainline roadway are 5 ft apart.

... MONTANA For an entrance ramp with a tapered acceleration lane, gore striping on both the entrance ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore between the entrance ramp and the mainline roadway becomes paved and continues until the gore stripes are 6 ft apart. The gore striping is a solid 8-in.

... There are no pavement markings within the paved portion of the gore. For an entrance ramp with a parallel acceleration lane, gore striping on both the entrance ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore between the entrance ramp and the mainline roadway becomes paved and continues until the gore ends and the lanes become adjacent.
