PBOT Road Sign P3970 (Oregon) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features the design of the PBOT Road Sign P3970 (or R3970) as used in Portland, Oregon. The artwork replicates the standard design of a supplementary plaque.
Visual Elements and Representation
The design consists of a rectangular plaque, as indicated by the PBOT sign code. The color scheme is a classic black and white, typical of regulatory signage for high visibility and clarity. The text "EXCEPT BUS & BICYCLES" is the central element, rendered in a clear, sans-serif font. The layout is straightforward and functional, prioritizing legibility.
Meaning and Symbolism
The artwork's design directly reflects the function of the sign it represents. The phrase "EXCEPT BUS & BICYCLES" communicates a specific exemption. It symbolizes a nuanced approach to traffic regulations, where buses and bicycles are granted access or the right to perform certain actions that are prohibited for other vehicles. The sign represents accessibility and accommodation of alternative modes of transportation in the City of Portland's urban planning.
