Changes in TSRGD 2016
14.2
An indication of distance, together with an arrow, may now be added to pedestrian overbridge or subway signs in the diagram 814 series.
14.3
New signs to diagram 892 and 893 to indicate the length of a tunnel have been introduced.
14.4
Diagram 818 is now a permitted variant of diagram 818.1.
14.5
All elements of diagrams 873, 874, 875 and 876 may now be varied to accord with the junction layout. Diagram 868 is now a permitted variant of diagram 873, diagrams 868.1 and 875 are permitted variants of diagram 874, and diagram 876 is now shown as part of diagrams 873 and 874.
14.6
New signs to diagrams 887 to 891 have been prescribed for use where overtaking lanes are provided on a single carriageway. These signs are used in conjunction with the road markings to diagram 1013.1 version B and new diagram 1013.5 (see paragraph 12.15 above). Guidance on the use of these signs and markings and details, including design principles and road layouts, can be found in Departmental Standard TD 70 "Design of Wide Single 2+1 Roads".
14.7
A new permitted variant allows the legend in diagram 877 to be varied to "Except cycles" or "Except buses & cycles". The use of the chevron marking symbol is no longer a permitted variant.
14.8
A new sign to diagram 886 advising motorists to share space has been introduced.
14.9
A new version of diagram 958 (bus lane ahead) is illustrated to show all permitted symbols. The bottom panel previously prescribed in diagram 961 is now shown, and may be omitted. (Diagram 961 is therefore removed.) The elements representing the road markings may now be varied to match the actual road markings placed; thereby allowing for the placing of near side, centre or off side bus lanes.
14.10
The two permitted versions of diagram 857 for "Tourist information" and "Information" are now prescribed separately as diagrams 857A and 857B respectively.
14.11
The sign shown on working drawing NP 426 is now prescribed as diagram 2718 (route number and location reference).
14.12
Diagram 611 (pass either side) is included in Schedule 11 and not Schedule 3 as it is an informatory sign rather than a regulatory sign.
14.13
The boundary sign referred to in paragraph 3.46 above and shown in Figure 3.1 is prescribed as diagram 2404. See also paragraphs 3.45 and 3.47 in respect of boundary signs.
14.14
Diagrams 818.2, 818.3 are now permitted variants of diagram 818.4 in Part 28 of Schedule 12.
14.15
Diagram 1010 may now be used to indicate the division between a cycle route and the main carriageway through a junction.
