DUAL CARRIAGEWAY ROADS

Plan DZB4: Lane-change zone for a single lane closure on a dual carriageway road with a permanent speed limit of 40mph or less

Two pairs of advance signs are required at 100m intervals:

  • wicket signs indicating the closed lane (7202) with distance panel "200 yards" (7208) on the near side and the off side, placed 200m in advance of the works lead taper; and
  • the wicket signs with distance plate "100 yards" are repeated 100m in advance of the works lead taper.

For entry taper details, including relaxations, see Plan DZB1.

Keys to the plans are given in Tables A1.4 and A1.5 of Appendix 1.

NOTES:

  1. Where no hard shoulder is present, no signing to Detail A is required.
  2. On roads with a permanent speed limit of 30 mph, the distance plates may be omitted.
