The Works Traffic Only roadway sign is an integral part of worksite logistics and controlled access. It is used across highway maintenance projects, infrastructure builds, and reactive utility jobs to define which routes are reserved for operational vehicles. Its clear directive ensures that unauthorised vehicles are discouraged from entering critical areas where machinery and site workers operate in close proximity.
Built from durable Zintec steel, the sign is overlaid with a 3M reflective film that ensures 24-hour visibility. The red and white message is instantly recognisable and aligns with temporary signage regulations under Chapter 8 guidance. Its standard 600mm format allows easy integration into roadside and compound setups without overwhelming the environment or creating additional hazards.
