Special Regulation Signs


The Vienna Convention has little definition and standardization for special regulation signs. Most signing countries will utilize a rectangular shape with a blue or light background color and varying text colors. These signs will regulate the types of vehicles allowed in certain areas, note the start and end of any urban areas, and note any change to the type of road that is being used.

Examples of Special Regulation Signs:

Taxis Only A regulatory sign allowing only taxis to park in the posted area.
Bus Lane A regulatory sign indicating which lane of travel is designated for buses.
Start Urban Area This sign shows the start of an urban area, normally traveling speeds are reduced at this point.
Leave Urban Area A corresponding sign to the start of an urban area, this sign notes the end of the area, higher traveling speeds are usually reinstated.
