located opposite the refuge as shown in figure 15-12. The signs may be varied to LANES and LOOK BOTH WAYS, but these versions are unlikely to be required.

Figure 15-12 Example of the use of pedestrian signs to diagram 963 to indicate a contra—flow bus lane
15.28 Two sizes are prescribed for the signs to diagrams 963 and 963.2. The larger size, with a 50 mm x—height, should normally be used. The smaller sign, with a 40 mm x—height, may be more suitable where there are space constraints, such as on a pedestrian refuge.
BUS-ONLY STREETS AND BUS GATES 15.29 Where either a one—way or two—way road is reserved for buses and cycles, the entry points should be indicated by signs to diagram 953. The other end of a one—way road must have "no entry" signs to diagram 616 in accordance with paras 4.39 to 4.41. Where the order permits taxis to use the road or excludes cycles, the sign to diagram 953 shall be varied accordingly. As with contra—flow bus lanes, this sign must be used in combination with the "Only" plate to diagram 953.2. Where the road is for the exclusive use of buses, the sign to diagram 953 is varied to show only the bus symbol. The "no entry" sign to diagram 616, with an "Except buses" plate, is not appropriate in this case as this combination should be used only for contra—flow bus lanes within a one—way street (see para 15.21). Where access to premises is required for other vehicles or where the bus—only restriction does not apply at all times, a sign to diagram 619 (no motor vehicles) with an exception plate to diagram 620 should be used (see paras 5.9 to 5.12). The plate should have the legend "Except buses and for access" and, if appropriate, include a time period. "buses" may be varied to "local buses".
