Temporary roadway signs like this priority sign are essential for managing one-lane vehicle flow at roadwork sites. This version includes both 'give way to oncoming traffic' and 'priority over oncoming traffic' symbols as required. Printed on durable zintec metal and mounted to a standard steel frame, it provides a professional and compliant solution to regulate traffic behaviour.
The sign plays a critical role in preventing confusion and accidents where lane narrowing makes dual-lane use impossible. Whether used on busy urban routes or remote utility sites, this traffic sign supports clear, consistent messaging for both directions of travel. Its reflective surface increases visibility at all times of day, and its triangular or circular format matches UK Department for Transport guidelines.
- Priority messaging - Clarifies which direction has right-of-way to avoid congestion and collisions.
- Temporary use case - Ideal for short-term works or phased resurfacing projects.
- Fits standard frames - Steel support provides secure installation even in windy areas.
- RA1 reflective finish - Enhances recognition for oncoming drivers in low light.
- UK regulation compatible - Matches signage requirements for on-site safety compliance.
This priority to oncoming traffic sign prevents hesitation or disputes by clearly marking driver obligations. Local authorities, highways contractors, and civil engineers use this sign in setups where one-way flow must be maintained safely. For tighter road sections, it eliminates doubt and directs driver behaviour with clarity and authority.
The sign integrates seamlessly with HERMEQ systems such as Quick Fit Signs and Road Plates to complete a compliant road safety scheme.
HERMEQ stock a wide-range of Traffic Signs, Traffic Management Equipment, Quick Fit Signs & Road Plates conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

This traffic road sign is designed to enforce directional priority in tight traffic zones—typically found in roadwork-controlled areas or constrained urban lanes. With lane closures more common during maintenance and resurfacing, drivers must be informed in advance about their obligation to yield or proceed.
- Highly visible priority symbols — use standard UK designs such as DfT diagram 615 (give way).
- Zintec frame with reflective face for full visibility compliance, even in rain or fog.
- Lightweight and portable for fast site deployment across rolling closures or phased projects.
Common use cases:
- Single-lane bridge or culvert resurfacing.
- Road narrowing due to emergency maintenance.
- Temporary traffic management for events or utility work.
- Shared cycle and vehicle lanes with phased access.
- Inner city one-way road trials or diversions.
This traffic sign is often deployed alongside cones, barriers, and give-way line markings to ensure drivers understand which lane has the right-of-way. Placing it before the taper allows for early decision-making and smoother driver response. Particularly useful for schemes requiring balanced two-way access over a single physical lane, such as gas mains, telecom trenching or pedestrianised zone reconfiguration.
The zintec material ensures long service life, even in harsh outdoor environments, while standard UK sizing ensures it’s compatible with HERMEQ leg systems and sign frames. Its portable design allows rapid repositioning across multiple project phases without specialist tools or equipment.
HERMEQ clients use this sign to enhance lane flow efficiency, avoid stand-offs between vehicles, and comply with Chapter 8 traffic control requirements. When paired with direction signage and physical barriers, this signage provides complete control and predictability across worksites.
