The Tennessee Supplement to the Standard Highway Signs Book is the State of Tennessee's supplement to the MUTCD, the standard for road signs, signals, and markings in the United States – more specifically, the supplement to the companion volume Standard Highway Signs and Markings, which contains design specifications for road signs. It is developed by the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) "in substantial conformance to" the national MUTCD developed by the Federal Highway Administration.
Usage in OpenStreetMap
A traffic sign specific to the supplement is mapped as a 
node tagged traffic_sign=US:TN:Z1-2, where "US:TN" is Tennessee's ISO 3166 code and Z1-2 is the sign's alphanumeric designation.
Sign designations
Each standard sign or plaque in the sign manual is assigned an alphanumeric designation and organized by series. A sign designation follows the same format as in the national MUTCD and SHSD; however, all the state-specific signs are classified under series TN, regardless of function.
Series TN

This listing does not include any sign that the supplement lists as obsolete or equivalent to a national MUTCD sign.
