(a) It shall be unlawful to disobey any traffic-control device, sign, signal, marking or insignia erected, installed or placed by authority of the Director of Transportation and Public Works of the city. This shall apply, when applicable, to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Insofar as possible, all such devices, signs, signals, markings or insignia shall conform to the manual and specifications adopted by the Texas Transportation Commission, as set forth in Chapter 544 of the Texas Transportation Code.
(b) Except for speed limit signs, all traffic-control devices, signs, signals, markings and insignia as presently located, erected or installed on the premises of the airport are hereby adopted, affirmed and ratified. Hereafter, to effect any change the Director of Transportation and Public Works or his or her designated representative shall conduct studies and investigations relating to all such traffic-control devices, signs, signals, markings and insignia, and in accordance with such studies and determinations shall make such changes as are deemed necessary in the interest of traffic safety. Records of such changes, when effected, shall be maintained in the director's office; provided, however, the delegation of authority granted in this section shall not extend to establishing or changing speed limits, whether maximum or minimum, but same shall be established by the city council according to the requirements of state law as delegated to cities by legislative enactment.
(c) The speed limits upon airport roadways are set at 20 mph. Vehicular speeds on aircraft ramps are set at ten mph, which limits, when appropriate signs giving notice thereof are erected, shall be effective at any such intersection or other place or part of the airport roadway system at all times during hours of daylight or darkness, or at such other times as may be determined.
