761—105.5 (307) Holiday rest stops on primary highways.
	 105.5(1) Site. The proposed site of a holiday rest stop along a noninterstate primary highway will be inspected by the department to ensure it meets the following requirements:
	  a.   	 The site shall be large enough to provide parking space for at least 15 vehicles and located so that all parked vehicles will be at least 50 feet from the edge of the traveled way of the primary highway.
	  b.   	 An access drive from the primary highway shoulder to the parking area shall have a top width of at least 20 feet and shall provide a clear view of the primary highway for at least 900 feet in each direction.
	 105.5(2) Signs.
	  a.   	 The sponsor shall not place any signs directing highway traffic to the holiday rest stop. The sponsor shall provide two signs approximately 4 feet by 4 feet announcing the holiday rest stop, one for each highway approach to the site. These signs will be installed by the department, not the sponsor. The department shall remove these signs when the holiday rest stop is discontinued.
	  b.   	 The sponsor is responsible for any signs posted at the actual holiday rest stop site. Signs provided or placed by the sponsor shall not include any advertising but may include the sponsor’s name. Signs shall not be mounted on objects (including vehicles) that contain the name of any organization or individual except the sponsor. The sponsor shall remove all signs it has erected promptly after the holiday rest stop is discontinued.
