This temporary traffic road sign is widely used across multiple industries where safety and visibility are paramount. It is particularly beneficial in:
- Highway maintenance works
- Construction zones
- Emergency repairs and short-term utility jobs
- Council-led road improvements
- Pedestrian redirection schemes
Traffic road signs like these are a legal requirement for most UK work sites. By displaying the men at work sign, teams meet compliance requirements while protecting road users and workers alike.
Temporary traffic signs are typically exposed to the elements. This sign’s polypropylene design withstands wind, rain and operational damage, maintaining visibility over time. Its angled design and stability footprint add strength without adding weight.
For best use, deploy the sign 50–100 metres before the worksite to maximise reaction time. Consider pairing with cone-based delineation or additional warning signage to improve visibility on curves or night works.
Its absence of metal parts makes it particularly attractive to fleet managers, who benefit from reduced loss due to scrap theft. The Q-sign is also flame resistant, further enhancing safety across jobs where heat or sparks are present.
