SIGNING PRINCIPLES

7203

D4.10.6 Two lanes of the carriageway are open to traffic with off side contra-flow working. The sign is used only where opposing flows are segregated using Details H or K, i.e. studs with traffic cylinders to diagram 7103. It is not appropriate if there is a buffer lane or a vehicle restraint barrier.

7203.1

D4.10.7 Two lanes of the carriageway are open to traffic, one of which uses the hard shoulder, with off side contra-flow working. The sign is used only where opposing flows are segregated using studs and

traffic cylinders in accordance with Details H or K. It is not appropriate if there is a buffer lane or a vehicle restraint barrier.

7204

D4.10.8 Two lanes of the carriageway are open to traffic, one of which uses the hard shoulder.

7205

D4.10.9 Two lanes of the carriageway are open to traffic.

7207

D4.10.10 The right-hand lane of a three-lane dual carriageway is closed ahead; traffic may use left-hand lanes and hard shoulder now. This sign may be used with a bottom panel to diagram 7208 to indicate the distance ahead at which the conditions indicated start to apply.

7209

D4.10.11 The sign to diagram 7209 may be used in combination with signs 7203, 7203.1, 7204 and 7205 to indicate the distance over

which the condition will apply.

7221

D4.10.12 The sign to diagram 7221 is used in advance of sharp bends where traffic is diverted onto a temporary road for a short distance.

D4.10.13 Other composite signs, such as the sign to diagram 7210 may consist of three panels, a centre panel with a top and a bottom panel. Signs such as those to diagrams 7211.1, 7230 etc. when used with a top panel to diagram 7260 have a lower panel "Now" to diagram 7272 to mark the point at which the hard shoulder running commences. For a list of the top and bottom panels which may be used with each centre panel see the table of combinations for that diagram in Schedule 12 to the Regulations.
