MA Route 173 (Massachusetts) Road Sign T-Shirt Design
This design showcases the iconic road sign for Massachusetts Route 173. The artwork is a faithful representation of the official signage, featuring a clean and instantly recognizable design.
Visual Elements
The design adheres to the standard Massachusetts state-route signage format. It prominently displays the number "173" in bold, black numerals centered within a white shield. A thin, black border elegantly frames the shield, providing definition and clarity. The elongated panel shape acknowledges that 173 is a three-digit route, in keeping with Massachusetts signage conventions.
Meaning and Symbolism
The "MA Route 173" sign is more than just a graphic; it's a symbol of navigation and identity within the Massachusetts highway system. This emblem directly identifies and confirms a motorist is traveling on, or is being directed to, the designated State Route 173. It signifies a state-maintained roadway under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT).
The design's simplicity reflects the functional purpose of the sign: to be clear, concise, and immediately understandable. The standardized design, rooted in the federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) with Massachusetts amendments, guarantees consistency and promotes safe wayfinding across the state.
