Manual stop and go signs are among the most effective tools for managing alternating flows of traffic in single-lane road closures. This 600mm metal roadway sign set comes mounted on a pole and allows operatives to rotate the face 180 degrees to alternate between 'Stop' and 'Go' instructions.
Unlike timed temporary traffic lights sign units, this manual method gives workers full control over traffic timing. It is especially useful for short-duration works, emergency maintenance, and narrow passageways where traffic road signs need to be clear and responsive.
- Pole-mounted setup - Provides ergonomic support and simplifies rotation during use.
- Temporary traffic signs compliant - Designed for UK traffic management operations.
- High visibility finish - Easily spotted by drivers from a distance.
- Cost-efficient control - Replaces automated systems with direct manual operation.
- Standard 600mm format - Recognised and accepted at UK road sites.
For lane closures and road works requiring alternating vehicle flow, the Stop/Go roadway sign with pole offers immediate control in the hands of a site operative. This temporary traffic sign removes the delays and limitations of pre-timed systems. Instead, traffic can be directed in real time, making it ideal for tight areas or projects with irregular vehicle flow.
Constructed with a durable 600mm metal disc and fitted to a strong hand pole, this setup ensures high visibility and ease of use. Workers can stand roadside and rotate the sign between 'STOP' and 'GO' positions in seconds. Unlike complex traffic lights setups, this tool requires no power source or setup delay—ideal for mobile road crews and short-term applications.
It is frequently used by councils, utility companies, and traffic contractors managing short-term disruptions, whether for cabling, trenching, or emergency repair. The compact form means it can be stored easily in vehicles and deployed quickly. As part of a complete strategy involving traffic road signs and cones, it contributes to a safer and more coordinated work zone.
This sign is a must-have for those seeking affordable, reliable, and directive traffic management signs that meet regulatory standards and streamline day-to-day road site operations.

In active road environments where full signal setups are impractical, the Stop/Go roadway sign offers precise, human-controlled traffic flow. Used most commonly on rural roads, residential areas, or narrow carriageways, it provides clear guidance for temporary two-way flow through single-lane works.
This manual unit consists of a 600mm metal face printed with high-impact red and green signals. The sign face is securely attached to a durable pole that operators can grip comfortably and rotate to control traffic. It provides greater flexibility compared to temporary traffic lights sign alternatives that must be timed in advance and may not adapt well to unpredictable traffic density.
HERMEQ’s Stop/Go sign also stands out in cost-efficiency. It avoids the rental and power costs of traffic light systems while providing direct operational control to on-site workers. This also improves reaction times, as operatives can quickly respond to queues, obstructions, or changes in flow. The simple design means training requirements are minimal and operators can become proficient with ease.
Temporary traffic signs like this are essential for short-cycle works such as drain repairs, road patching, or cable laying. The sign supports efforts to maintain compliance and keep teams safe by establishing an authoritative control point. Its height and size ensure it's visible from long distances, even on low-light or winding roads.
Pair this traffic road sign with additional HERMEQ traffic management signs and barriers to complete the site layout. For a responsive, field-tested solution that requires no setup time or external power, this Stop/Go system is an ideal option. It folds neatly into compact storage and is built for years of repeated use in demanding site conditions.
