CONVOY WORKING
NOTES:
- A pair of speed limit signs must be placed at the point where the temporary limit begins, and repeater signs should be placed throughout the works site at 200 m intervals on alternate sides of the road.
- Where the near side lane is closed, traffic should be directed into the off side lane immediately after passing the traffic signals.
- The end of the restrictions may be indicated by a sign to diagram 7001 with an "End" plate to diagram 645. If the temporary speed limit masks a change in the permanent speed limit at some point within the works, a sign showing the new limit must be erected on each side of the carriageway at the end of the works. For night-time works diagram 7002.1 should be placed between the 1 mile and 2 mile advance signs. This should be left in place during the day.
- When "STOP/GO" boards are used, the legend on diagram 7028 shall be changed by substituting "AT TRAFFIC CONTROL" for "WHEN GREEN LIGHT SHOWS".
- When "STOP/GO" boards are used, the sign and supplementary plate to diagrams 543 and 7030 shall be replaced with the diagram 7010.1 variant, "TRAFFIC CONTROL AHEAD".
- A "traffic queues likely" sign to diagram 584 must be placed in combination with the supplementary plate to diagram 584.1 "Queues likely".
- The sign to diagram 7026 should be repeated at 200m intervals through the site.
