D4.9CONES AND CYLINDERS
D4.9.1 Cones and cylinders are used to delineate the traffic lane a driver should take past an obstruction, accident or road works. The portability of these devices is of particular advantage in emergencies or when they are used to delineate works which move progressively along a carriageway. Cones to diagram 7101.1, flat traffic delineators to diagram 7102 and cylinders to diagram 7103 are prescribed traffic signs. Traffic cones and cylinders shall conform to BS EN 134222:2004 "Vertical road signs. Portable deformable warning devices and delineators. Portable road traffic signs. Cones and cylinders" and must comply with regulation 56. Table 4.4 summarises the minimum and optional requirements for cones and cylinders for UK roads.
