Priority To Oncoming Traffic roadway signs are critical for managing yield scenarios where carriageways narrow or directional control is needed. They are deployed at pinch points, chicanes, and calming installations to ensure right-of-way is visibly communicated to drivers. Used widely in local authority and construction schemes, these signs enhance predictability and flow.
- Warns vehicles to give way to oncoming traffic, ensuring control in restricted-lane situations.
- Manufactured with Zintec steel and coated with 3M film for lasting visibility and durability.
- Framed or unframed supply options to accommodate permanent or mobile signage applications.
- Used on narrowed roads, one-way priorities, and traffic calming schemes across UK networks.
- Complements other temporary traffic signs in full traffic management signs setups.
Priority To Oncoming Traffic roadway signs provide a structured method of managing flow where road width restricts bidirectional travel. They are vital at points where driver decisions must be based on signage rather than signal control, such as during narrowed roadworks or traffic calming initiatives.
These signs offer clear instruction and reduce the risk of collisions at yield points. They are particularly useful on urban street schemes, culvert works, temporary diversions, or infrastructure projects where temporary right-of-way needs to be enforced.
Built from weather-resistant Zintec with 3M reflective coating, the sign remains visible day and night. It can be positioned with frames or integrated into cone-based modular setups for maximum adaptability.
Incorporated within temporary traffic sign installations, these traffic road signs form part of a broader traffic management signs strategy for safety, order, and efficiency. They complement directional boards, barriers, and pedestrian management tools to establish a coherent on-site control system.
