Jim,
All of
this is found in MUTCD Section 2D.38 as linked here:
Unless
NH has legally adopted the MUTCD, the size is really a recommendation and not a
requirement. You'll read that they SHOULD be at least 6 inch letters and,
on multi lane roads over 40 mph, they should be 8 in letters. But for
local streets of 25 mph or less, they MAY be 4 in. letters.

Can anyone tell me if the
regulations have changed regarding street signs and speed limits. We are about
to redesign our City street signs and it used to be anything under 35mph you
could still use 4” letters and 6” blanks over 35mph was 6” letters and 9”
blanks. Any change in MUTCD?
