SIGNING PRINCIPLES

7006

D4.14.5 For motorways and dual carriageway high-speed roads the sign 7006 should be considered only where the traffic management design indicates delays are likely to be severe. The central reservation sign should be the sign to diagram 7001 with the regulatory "End" plate to diagram 645. The words "Highways Agency" may be varied to "Welsh Assembly Government", "Transport Scotland", "Department for Regional Development" or the name of the appropriate traffic or roads authority. The Highways Agency logo should be varied accordingly.

D4.14.6 For all other situations the sign to diagram 7001 with the "End" plate to diagram 645 should be displayed. The sign should be sited on both sides of a dual carriageway road and on the near side of a single carriageway road.

D4.14.7 Sign siting distances are set out in Table A1.1 (Appendix 1) and appropriate sizes for "End" plates to diagram 645 in Table A1.2 (Appendix 1).

7006.1

D4.14.8 The sign containing the telephone information number to be used for enquiries about road works should be placed at the end of all major road works sites. The sign should be located on the near side approximately 200m downstream from the "end of road works" sign. The words "Highways Agency" may be varied to "Welsh Assembly Government”, "Transport Scotland", "Department for Regional Development" or the name of the appropriate traffic or roads authority. The Highways Agency logo and the telephone number should be varied accordingly.
