Direction, Position, and Indication Signs


The convention has little or no definition for the format of direction and indication signs. They are rectangular in shape and will vary in color. Motorway indicators fall into this sign category, and are usually colored blue or green. Any temporary directional sign, as involving a detour, will be yellow or orange in color. These signs serve as additional information for navigation.

Examples of direction, position, and indication signs:

Autobahn Entrance There is an upcoming entrance for a highway or autobahn.
Route Number Indicates the route number of the current road.
Consolidated Directions An example of direction signs indicating the nearest motorway entrance and nearby towns.
Detour These signs will indicate a temporary route for construction projects or obstructions.
Roundabout Directions Approaching a roundabout, this sign will indicate the direction of each exit.
Complex Turn Approaching an urban area with potentially confusing turns, this sign gives the specified route before entering the turn.
