How far from the workspace should the END ROAD WORK sign be set up?

The END ROAD WORK sign should be set up at a distance of 500 feet from the workspace. This distance allows drivers adequate warning that they are approaching the end of construction activities, which is essential for safe navigation. By placing the sign 500 feet in advance, it gives motorists sufficient time to adjust their speed and return to normal driving conditions. This consideration is particularly important in maintaining safety for both the workers and the drivers, preventing abrupt transitions in traffic flow. Ensuring that the sign is positioned at this recommended distance helps facilitate a smoother and safer transition for vehicles moving out of construction zones.
