This page is a showcase of many different signs of different eras throughout Arizona. All the era years are approximate as I can only estimate the times when standards were changed. (This page is also really just an excuse for me to post a ton of signs for fun.)
Button Copy (1998 and prior) 1999-2005 2006-2011 Clearview (2012-2017) Current (2017-Now)
ADOT signage in this era was smaller, and looked pretty much the same as signs before. However, the main difference is that these signs do not have button copy and some of them have ADOT's failed anti-graffiti covering experiment. You can tell which signs have the anti-graffiti covering depending on whether there are a lot of "cracks" on the sign or not. These signs use the standard FHWA Highway Gothic fonts.
