It's time to STOP and YIELD to the temptation to learn where highway signs come from. There's ONE WAY to do that, and that's listening to this episode of On the Road With ADOT

This week's guest is Ray Vega, who supervises the ADOT Sign Shop. Large and not so large, green, red, blue, brown, white or yellow, each sign along state highways is there to help keep you safe. 

So DETOUR from your normal schedule and spend a few minutes with Ray and host Doug Nintzel. You'll come away with an appreciation of the people and processes behind highway signs across our state.
