Shoulder Ends

The paved shoulder is about to end; move back toward the travel lane and avoid edge drift.

A usable shoulder is present now but ends shortly ahead. Drivers riding the right edge, bicyclists using the shoulder, and disabled vehicles need to merge back into or away from the travel lane before the surface narrows. Expect a drop-off or unpaved surface beyond this point.
