In Canada those blue service signs are paid for by customers that want their businesses listed on the signs. As such, we also have some that list a church as a service destination. Basically, whoever wants to pay to have their destination included is good and legal. Once I did get a complaint from a citizen who assumed those blue signs were paid for by the government and wanted the church's name taken off the sign; he was surprised to find that we wouldn't be doing that.
I'm pretty sure it's the same in the US since we have signed an agreement to standardize our signage.

Outside the town I grew up in is a big sign that says "Columbus Churches Welcome You" and it has a lot of the churches listed. However, it's nowhere near a freeway.

We travel South every year and have taken various routes to our destination. The only signs for churches and assembly halls have been stand alone and usually in front of the structure with the name of the pastor and service hours.

Seen em on the interstate so yes. Took a trip through the back roads of the Carolina's a few years ago and they have a several giant yellow warning signs that say CHURCH in front of every one and there are a bunch in each of those little towns.

I've never seen one, I live in the bible belt. I think b/c those signs are part of the DOT, gov't, they can't put a church on there. If you're wondering b/c you want to find a church, you can't go one mile in the south without pasiing some kind of church.

NO That would not be allowed by the ACLU and their separation of church and state crap. The ACLU sucks most of the time.

No, we use skywriters. It looks much more like a sign from God when you see "take a right to First Baptist Church" in billowing letters across the sky.

I have never seen one.
Don't give them any ideas though. They would have to make the signboards considerably larger.

No but they should. I sometimes sin on the road and want nothing more to go into a random Church and start praying.
