Here are some tips on how to keep your campaign signs legal: * Do not place campaign signs on or within any public right of way as State law specifically prohibits this. This includes trees, telephone poles, traffic signs, and other objects on the right of way. Signs in violation will be removed by TxDOT employees, a county sheriff, or a constable, depending upon the jurisdiction. * If you are thinking of placing a sign inside of incorporated city limits, make sure to check with the city because the signs may be subject to a local ordinance. Here’s what you can legally do: * Place a campaign sign on private property with the owner’s permission along all highways in Texas. * Signs must meet some basic criteria. The signs must be made of lightweight material and can be up to 50 square feet in size. Signs may be placed as early as 90 days before an election, but no earlier. Signs must be removed within 10 days after the election. We’re here to help you determine where your campaign signs can go. For more information about these laws and rules, and where you can place your campaign sign, visit the department’s Web site at www.dot.state.tx.uslinsdtdot/orgchartllaolleginfo.htm. or the TxDOT office nearest you. |
