ClearviewHwy: Typeface clearer than British Transport, DIN 1451 & Helvetica
The N.Y. Times Magazine article, The Road to Clarity, recites how two designers collaborated to create ClearviewHwy, the typeface that will gradually replace Highway Gothic on U.S. Interstate roadways.
If it were not designed to do so, it would be a shame that such a beautiful typeface will go unnoticed by those to whom it will provide the most benefits.
addendum March 6, 2008
Mike the Actuary has a collection of TrueType fonts, some similar to Highway Gothic & ClearviewHwy, that are freely available for recreational use.
