'''Support.''' This is commonly referred to as the Logo Program. See Signing Policy 7 CSR 10-9 for the Logo rules. Pursuant to [http://www.sos.mo.gov/adrules/csr/current/7csr/7c10-9.pdf 7 CSR 10-9 of the Missouri Code of State Regulations] (CSR), and based on the standards and guidelines noted herein, MoDOT has established a program that “provides signing that contains a logo for a business if it qualifies in a category. These signs are erected only in advance of interchanges on state system.”
'''History.''' MoDOT’s Logo program first became affective in 1991 and has been managed by a third party contractor from the beginning. Up to 2010, MoDOT had a heavy involvement in the management of the program, this involved final execution of applicant contracts, maintaining a data base of participants, depositing funds collected from the applicant and redistributing funds back to the contractor for services rendered and even being responsible for maintaining the Logo signs for a significant portion of time.
This program is administered by an outside contractor and is governed by a set of rules and regulations that are contained in the Missouri Code of State Regulations (CSR). The current CSRs for the Logo program are contained in this article.
In 2010 the Logo contract was renegotiated and the TODS and Logo contracts were combined into one program under one contract. This renegotiated contract reformatted the way the program was managed. The new format was designed to align the program, applicant contracts and fee collection schedules with MoDOT’s fiscal year and the renewal date of the contract between the Commission and the contractor. This was all done to prepare the program to be rebid in 2015 and allow for a clean transition should a new contractor be awarded the contract. From this point forward, MoDOT’s contractor assumed the full responsibility of the program to execute contracts, collect and track revenue as well as install and maintain all signs with their portion of the revenue. MoDOT would receive a guaranteed annual revenue from this new program which would be deposited in the road fund to help maintain the state’s road and bridge network. MoDOT’s role under this new program format is now limited to site plan reviews for new sign installations, reporting any sign damage to the contractor so they can correct it, and to serve as a resource on MoDOT’s Policy and the Code of State Regulations under which the programs were operated.
'''Standard.''' Specific Service signs shall be defined as guide signs that provide road users with business identification and directional information for services and for eligible attractions. Eligible service categories shall be limited to gas, food, lodging, camping, attractions, and 24-hour pharmacies.
In 2015 the new Supplemental Guide Sign Program was created which included both the TODS and Logo programs as well as Traffic Generator signing, College Signing, State and Federal site signing, Welcome Center Affiliate Signing and State Correctional Center Signing.
'''Guidance.''' The use of Specific Service signs should be limited to areas primarily rural in character or to areas where adequate sign spacing can be maintained.
A new CSR for this program was also established for this new program and replaced the CSRs for TODS, Logos, Traffic Generator and College signing and including rules for State and Federal site signing, Welcome Center Affiliate Signing and State Correctional Center Signing that once were MoDOT policy. A Request for Proposal was issued for the Supplemental Guide Sign Program and a new contract awarded, both the new CSR and the new contract became effective July 1, 2015.
'''Option.''' Where an engineering study determines a need, Specific Service signs may be used on any class of highways, according to the CSR.
August of 2020 a new RFP was initiated advertising the Supplemental Guide Sign Program contract for the next 5-year management period, this contract became effective July 1, 2021 with no changes to the CSR.
'''Guidance.''' Specific Service signs should not be installed at an interchange where the road user cannot conveniently reenter the freeway or expressway and continue in the same direction of travel.
'''Standard.''' All requests for participation in the Logo program shall be forwarded to MoDOT’s Supplemental Guide Sign Program contractor for processing. Per the CSR, it is the program manager’s responsibility to receive all requests, evaluate eligibility and administer the contract with the applicant.
'''Standard.''' Eligible service facilities shall comply with laws concerning the provisions of public accommodations without regard to race, religion, color, age, sex or national origin and laws concerning the licensing and approval of service facilities.
MoDOT districts’ role in the program is limited to reviewing and approving site plan reviews for new sign installations to assure these new sign installations are appropriate, looking for items such as, but not limited to, assuring the new installations do not conflict with existing traffic control devices, creating sight distance issues or create an issue for maintaining the right of way. Another critical responsibility is to identify and report damage and/or deficiencies with any of the signs the program manager is responsible to correct.
The tourist attraction shall include only facilities which have the primary purpose of providing amusement, historical or cultural activities to the public.
[http://sp/sites/ts/Pages/default.aspx Central Office Highway Safety and Traffic Division] shall be responsible for managing the Supplemental Guide Sign Program Contract, updating the CSR, interpreting the intent of the CSR and the program contract if there are questions or appeals from prospective applicants. Highway Safety and Traffic Division shall also be responsible for working with Governmental Relations on issues which may need to be addressed on the legislative side. If the Highway Safety and Traffic Division is unable to resolve an issue or concern it will be addressed by the Chief Safety and Operations Officer, Deputy Director and Chief Engineer and, if necessary, the Director.
Distances to eligible 24-hour pharmacies shall not exceed 3 miles in any direction of an interchange on the federal-aid system.
The Logo program shall be managed in accordance with the Code of State Regulations 7 CSR 10-17 Supplemental Guide Sign Program and the Supplemental Guide Sign Program contract between the Commission and MoDOT’s 3<sup>rd</sup> party contractor. The CSR is binding and has the effect of law. Exceptions and/or variations from the CSR are not permitted under normal conditions with the Director only having the authority to authorize such actions.
'''Guidance.''' Distances to eligible services should not exceed 3 miles in either direction.
'''Option.''' If, within the 3-mile limit, facilities for the services being considered are not available or choose to not participate in the program, the limit of eligibility may be extended in 3-mile increments until one or more facilities for the services being considered chooses to participate or until 6 miles is reached for gas, food and lodging services, 15 miles is reached for camping services or 30 miles is reached for tourist attractions, whichever comes first.
'''Standard.''' If Specific Service signing is provided for pharmacies, both of the following criteria shall be met for a pharmacy to qualify for signing.
:A. The pharmacy shall be continuously operated 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, and shall have a state-licensed pharmacist present and on duty at all times.

History. MoDOT’s Logo program first became affective in 1991 and has been managed by a third party contractor from the beginning. Up to 2010, MoDOT had a heavy involvement in the management of the program, this involved final execution of applicant contracts, maintaining a data base of participants, depositing funds collected from the applicant and redistributing funds back to the contractor for services rendered and even being responsible for maintaining the Logo signs for a significant portion of time.

MoDOT’s role under this new program format is now limited to site plan reviews for new sign installations, reporting any sign damage to the contractor so they can correct it, and to serve as a resource on MoDOT’s Policy and the Code of State Regulations under which the programs were operated.
In 2015 the new Supplemental Guide Sign Program was created which included both the TODS and Logo programs as well as Traffic Generator signing, College Signing, State and Federal site signing, Welcome Center Affiliate Signing and State Correctional Center Signing.
A new CSR for this program was also established for this new program and replaced the CSRs for TODS, Logos, Traffic Generator and College signing and including rules for State and Federal site signing, Welcome Center Affiliate Signing and State Correctional Center Signing that once were MoDOT policy. A Request for Proposal was issued for the Supplemental Guide Sign Program and a new contract awarded, both the new CSR and the new contract became effective July 1, 2015.
August of 2020 a new RFP was initiated advertising the Supplemental Guide Sign Program contract for the next 5-year management period, this contract became effective July 1, 2021 with no changes to the CSR.
Standard. All requests for participation in the Logo program shall be forwarded to MoDOT’s Supplemental Guide Sign Program contractor for processing. Per the CSR, it is the program manager’s responsibility to receive all requests, evaluate eligibility and administer the contract with the applicant.
MoDOT districts’ role in the program is limited to reviewing and approving site plan reviews for new sign installations to assure these new sign installations are appropriate, looking for items such as, but not limited to, assuring the new installations do not conflict with existing traffic control devices, creating sight distance issues or create an issue for maintaining the right of way. Another critical responsibility is to identify and report damage and/or deficiencies with any of the signs the program manager is responsible to correct.
Central Office Highway Safety and Traffic Division shall be responsible for managing the Supplemental Guide Sign Program Contract, updating the CSR, interpreting the intent of the CSR and the program contract if there are questions or appeals from prospective applicants. Highway Safety and Traffic Division shall also be responsible for working with Governmental Relations on issues which may need to be addressed on the legislative side. If the Highway Safety and Traffic Division is unable to resolve an issue or concern it will be addressed by the Chief Safety and Operations Officer, Deputy Director and Chief Engineer and, if necessary, the Director.
The Logo program shall be managed in accordance with the Code of State Regulations 7 CSR 10-17 Supplemental Guide Sign Program and the Supplemental Guide Sign Program contract between the Commission and MoDOT’s 3rd party contractor. The CSR is binding and has the effect of law. Exceptions and/or variations from the CSR are not permitted under normal conditions with the Director only having the authority to authorize such actions.
The rules contained within the CSR are based on, and are in conformance with, the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices and the AASHTO Guidelines for the Selection of Supplemental Guide Signs for Traffic Generators.
