Toad migrations occur seasonally and present unique challenges for road safety and wildlife preservation. The Toad Crossing Ahead roadway sign is designed to inform drivers of animal activity in specific crossing zones. This helps reduce vehicle impact on native toad populations and creates safer road conditions during migration peaks. With a distinct graphic and red border, the sign is easy to identify, even at speed.
It’s constructed from Zintec plate and fitted with reflective 3M sheeting for optimal visibility day or night. Suitable for permanent or seasonal use, it is a reliable addition to HERMEQ’s trusted traffic road signs range used by local councils and wildlife trusts.
- Reflective face - Alerts motorists in low-light or night-time conditions along forested or rural roads.
- Weatherproof steel - Zintec plate withstands outdoor exposure across multiple seasons.
- Conservation-focused - Designed for ecological road safety in wildlife migration areas.
- Mount-ready - Compatible with HERMEQ’s traffic sign frames for easy installation.

This sign supports environmental stewardship while also delivering practical traffic safety benefits. It’s a go-to choice for project managers working near reserves, parks, or nature corridors where wildlife movement is regulated and respected. Its clarity and regulatory compliance make it an important asset during environmental works or biodiversity-related transport schemes.
