may be placed along the right-hand side of the adjacent mainline lane from the point where the exit ramp starts to the point where the gore striping starts. For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on both the exit ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore starts and ends 50 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends.

DELAWARE For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on both the exit ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore starts and ends 50 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends (measured along the left edge line of the ramp -- the end of the gore striping along the mainline roadway is at the point on the right edge line where a perpendicular line would line up with the end of the gore striping on the ramp, which is a point that is less than 50 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends)

For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on the mainline roadway starts at the point where the full width of the ramp first becomes available and ends at the point where the extra roadway paving on the right of the right edge line of the mainline roadway ends. Gore striping on the ramp starts at the point where the full width of the ramp first becomes available and ends at the point where the paved portion of the gore ends.

If used, the first chevron stripe is placed 50 ft beyond the point where the gore width becomes 1 ft wide. MASSACHUSETTS For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on both the exit ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore starts and ends at the point where the paved portion of the gore ends.

From page 133... ...
There are no pavement markings within the paved portion of the gore. For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on both the exit ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore starts and ends 5 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends.

PENNSYLVANIA For an exit ramp with a tapered deceleration lane, gore striping on the mainline roadway starts at the point where the full width of the ramp first becomes available and ends 50 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends, and gore striping on the ramp starts at the point where the full width of the ramp first becomes available and ends at the point where the paved portion of the gore ends. The gore striping is comprised of solid 8-in.-wide lines.

wide at 16-ft spacing may be placed within the paved portion of the gore when visibility or sight distance of the gore is restricted. For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore starts and ends 50 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends, and gore striping on the ramp starts at the point where the gore starts and ends at the point where the paved portion of the gore ends.

VIRGINIA For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on the mainline roadway starts at the point where the gore starts and ends 150 ft beyond the point where the paved portion of the gore ends, and gore striping on the ramp starts at the point where the gore starts and ends at the point where the paved portion of the gore ends. The gore striping is comprised of solid 8-in.-wide lines.

An optional dotted line may be placed along the right-hand side of the adjacent mainline lane from the point where the ramp starts to the point where the gore striping starts. For an exit ramp with a parallel deceleration lane, gore striping on both the exit ramp and the mainline roadway starts at the beginning of the gore and ends at the point where the paved portion of the gore ends.
