Sizes of Billboards

Research


Outside Billboards

Billboard regulations are controlled on a local level, by states and various municipalities. The 1965 Highway Beautification Act specified some vague sign restrictions within 660 feet of a highway. However, the zoning regulations of a given location specify the actual requirements of billboards. Hence, there are no universal billboard requirements. Instead, billboards are often regulated based on their size, content and location.

 Billboard sizing

The zoning ordinances of an area often specify a maximum billboard size. Along most American highways, the average billboard size is 14 feet by 48 feet. Certain areas, however, regulate this size with slightly more specificity. For example, a 1998 ordinance in Springdale, Arkansas, specified a maximum area of 600 square feet. This regulation, like many other similar local regulations, further restricts the loose standards established by the Highway Beautification Act.
