... . Among the more detailed designs, layout details, and associated practices that are found in many of the state and local documents are the following: • Methods of delineating turn lane channelization, • Patterns and spacing of lane-use turn arrows and ONLY word markings, • Patterns and spacing of crosswalk markings and stop lines, • Patterns and spacing of turn arrows in two-way left-turn lanes, • Patterns and dimensions of chevrons and diagonal lines, • Methods of delineating climbing and passing lanes, and • Methods of delineating entrance ramp and exit ramp gores.

... show the range of values and the most common pavement marking practices found in the design standards for the various agencies. Table 1 contains information regarding pavement markings at intersections including: • Turn lanes, • Lane lines for dual turn lanes, • Lane line extensions into intersections for dual turn lanes, • Use and type of dotted lines in turn lane tapers, • Left-turn lanes added between through lanes of two-lane highways, • Solid lane lines between through lanes on signalized approaches, • Crosswalks, • Stop lines, and • Right-turn channelizing islands.
