IN APRIL 1972 THE STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION OF VIRGINIA APPROVED A PROGRAM TO PROVIDE PERMANENT SPECIFIC INFORMATION SIGNING FOR TRAVEL SERVICES ALONG I-95 BETWEEN THE NORTH CAROLINA LINE AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. THIS FOLLOWS AN EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM CONDUCTED IN 1966 AND 1967 DURING WHICH 124 ESTABLISHMENTS MEETING FEDERAL AND VIRGINIA STANDARDS FOR PROVISION OF FUEL, LODGING, AND RESTAURANT SERVICES PARTICIPATED IN A PROGRAM OF "LOGO" SIGNING. STANDARDS FOR THE SIZE, APPEARANCE, AND SEQUENCE OF THE LOGOS ARE DESCRIBED, ALONG WITH THE CRITERIA EMPLOYED TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN ESTABLISHMENT QUALIFIED FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE EXPERIMENTAL AND PERMANENT PROGRAMS.
