Product Information

Now that you're aware of what the number of bars indicates in these yards signs, it's now time to identify what these signs further mean based on their provided colours. Here they are: If you're a newbie driver, you must wonder why the "yards" sign exists. Well, to answer your question, these "yards" signs are actually referred to as countdown markers. These road signs exist to indicate how close you are to a particular point or area.

The four local authorities due to introduce LEZ (Aberdeen City, Dundee City, City of Edinburgh and Glasgow City) have been involved in discussions during the development of these signs. Local facilities sign (amendment to existing sign) A new sign to indicate the exit from a low emission zone, incorporating the LEZ symbol. LEZ road marking First up, let’s break it down to what the different shapes and colours of road signs mean. Generally, road signs will fit into these three common shapes. Triangle road signsThis minor change to the regulations allows the next two laybys on a continuous route to be identified on the standard advance notification “P” parking sign. So for example rather than just identifying the next layby (“P” 1 mile), it will allow the next two to be identified (“P” 1 mile and 5 miles). The result is that these signs here are giving a countdown to something, without saying what the something is in a situation that is not described in the highway code.

The amendment will provide benefits in situations where the definition of the restricted zone is not well suited to fixed periods. For example, it will enable the zone restriction to be applied during school term times, but not during holidays. This has potential dual benefit of: Not only will this be more noticeable than a smaller sign, but it will also improve legibility and hence reading distance, Again, depending on the sign's indicated colours, you will likely see these yards signs once you're close to the end of a particular point or a possible hazard. With the help of these signs, you can switch lanes ahead of time and make your exit from the motorway or junction smoothly. Triangle road signs are there to warn you about an upcoming hazard. If you see a triangular road sign, it’s warning you about something coming up, so generally it’s time to slow down and be on alert.

Therefore, the introduction of the proposed amendment to TSRGD will not directly result in any increase in cost, but may lead to the installation of signs which cost local authorities more money to install and maintain, at their discretion. Sectors and Groups Affected It is noted that Blue Badge holders will be exempt from LEZ restrictions under the appropriate regulations (which are separate from the 2022 Regulations and General Directions).
