A city limit sign marks the official boundary of a municipality, often showing the city name and sometimes the population or founding date. City limit signs are guide signs that help drivers orient themselves and prepare for the shift from rural to urban driving conditions.
Yes - you can add any town name, population count, or even a local slogan to a custom city limit sign template. Small towns often add a founding year or "Welcome to" line to give the sign local character.
Standard city limit signs follow the MUTCD's white text on a green background, the color reserved for guide and wayfinding information. That green sets a city limit sign apart from yellow warning signs and white-and-red regulatory signs.
City limit signs are made with 3M reflective aluminum so they stay visible to drivers at night. The reflective sheeting bounces headlights back toward the driver, keeping the city name legible after dark.
The most common city limit sign sizes are around 18" x 24" and 24" x 30", with larger dimensions used on high-speed highways entering a city. For a home or keepsake city sign, smaller sizes down to about 6" x 18" work well.
We are leading maker of custom city limit signs. A custom city limit sign is a green guide sign you letter with your town's name - and often its population, elevation, or founding year - to mark where the city begins. A town posts one to greet drivers and mark its jurisdictional line, but plenty of buyers order a custom city-limit sign as a keepsake, like a "Welcome to" sign for a driveway or an "Austin City Limit" replica for the wall. Every custom city limit sign is printed on rustproof.080" aluminum with 3M reflective sheeting, so a roadside sign reads day and night and lasts for years.
