Traffic signs

A traffic sign is a standardised visual symbol placed along roads to guide, warn, or regulate drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. These signs provide essential information about road conditions, rules, directions, and potential hazards, helping to ensure safety and smooth traffic flow. They come in various shapes and colours—such as triangular warning signs, circular prohibitory or mandatory signs, and rectangular information signs—each designed for quick recognition and clear understanding.

151. Disc parking, maximum 2 hours

This supplementary sign indicates that a parking disc must be used and parking is limited to a maximum of 2 hours.

152. At shown times on workdays, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays

This supplementary sign indicates that the main traffic sign applies during the indicated times on workdays, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

153. Recommended speed

This supplementary sign indicates a recommended speed rather than a maximum speed limit. Its legal effect depends on the applicable local rules.

154. Gradient percentage

This supplementary sign indicates the gradient of the road as a percentage. A value of 10% means the road rises or falls approximately 10 metres for every 100 metres of horizontal distance.
