This metal roadway sign communicates that the road narrows on the left, guiding traffic safely through temporary narrowing sections. Commonly used in roadworks, utility repairs, and traffic diversion zones, this sign plays a critical role in HERMEQ’s portfolio of temporary traffic signs and traffic management signs for high-risk, high-visibility deployments.

Made from zintec metal and fitted with a RA1 reflective face, it ensures long-lasting performance and visibility in challenging weather or lighting. The sign fits securely into standard angle iron frames, making installation quick and compliant. Designed for professional contractors and traffic controllers, this road narrow sign offers clarity and compliance on any active site.

  • Standard 750mm size – Offers excellent legibility for both rural and urban use cases.
  • Reflective safety finish – Enhances performance at night and in poor weather conditions.
  • Accurate directional signalling – Left-side narrowing alert helps direct safe driving flow.
  • Robust mounting system – Securely clips into angle iron frames for durability on busy roads.
  • Supports legal compliance – Conforms to UK temporary traffic sign regulations.

This sign should be positioned between the “Road Works Ahead” sign and the start of the taper where the road narrows. It is most effective when placed in a sequential traffic setup to ensure that drivers have time to slow down and merge safely. The left-facing icon makes it essential that the correct orientation is used for each job site.

As part of a wider temporary signage strategy, the road narrows sign is often combined with cones, arrow boards, and directional signs to manage traffic progression. Contractors operating across housing projects, road maintenance, and municipal works rely on HERMEQ for fully integrated traffic signage solutions.

HERMEQ stock a wide-range of Traffic Signs, Traffic Management Equipment, Quick Fit Signs & Road Plates conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

The road narrows left sign is one of the most widely used traffic road signs in the UK, providing essential driver guidance during lane restrictions. When properly deployed, this sign ensures drivers are aware that the available carriageway width is about to reduce, particularly from the left side, due to active work zones or obstruction.


This metal sign from HERMEQ is made from RA1 reflective material laminated onto a zintec metal face. It delivers durability and visibility in high-traffic, high-risk settings. The reflective finish ensures the sign remains effective in night-time or low-visibility conditions, improving awareness and helping drivers react in time. Clipped into an angle iron frame, it remains stable even in windy or uneven terrain.


Use this sign as part of a staggered temporary traffic system, ideally following advanced warning signage and preceding directional lane markers. It is especially effective where works are planned on A roads, B roads, or single-lane access routes where space and timing are critical. Urban contractors and regional road authorities use these signs in both scheduled works and emergency interventions.


The clear graphical indicator for left-side narrowing helps standardise expectations for drivers navigating unfamiliar worksites. When used in conjunction with the corresponding “road narrows right” or “two-way traffic” signs, this unit supports structured flow and reduced confusion. It's also important to ensure it's followed by taper signage or cones that reinforce lane positioning visually.


As a temporary traffic sign, this unit supports quick deployment, repositioning, and stacking for storage in fleet vehicles or depots. Contractors aiming for short turnaround between project sites will benefit from the lightweight yet strong build. Unlike some plastic versions, this metal face holds up better over longer periods and during multiple redeployments.


When specifying signage for your next traffic control job, HERMEQ’s road narrows sign is a standard choice. It integrates seamlessly with other traffic management signs to provide a compliant, scalable and professional traffic control system. This makes it ideal not just for isolated use, but as part of a full signage kit for short-term or long-duration traffic diversions.
