This law says that if a state normally posts signs naming the funding source on projects it builds without federal highway money, it must also post signs on federally-funded highway projects. Those signs must be visible to drivers and show which government sources paid for the project and how much.

If a state has a habit of putting up signs on its own projects — ones built without federal highway aid — that name where the funding came from, this section says the state must do the same for projects funded through the Highway Trust Fund (except the Mass Transit Account). On those federally-assisted projects under construction, the state must put up signs that highway users can see, showing each government source of funding and how much money that source provided.

If a State has a practice of erecting on projects under actual construction without Federal-aid highway assistance signs which indicate the source or sources of any funds used to carry out such projects, such State shall erect on all projects under actual construction with any funds made available out of the Highway Trust Fund (other than the Mass Transit Account) signs which are visible to highway users and which indicate each governmental source of funds being used to carry out such federally assisted projects and the amount of funds being made available by each such source.
