An information sign is a traffic sign that provides useful guidance or clarification to road users without imposing rules or warnings. These signs inform drivers about things like parking zones, directions, facilities, road layouts, or the start and end of built-up areas. Their purpose is to help drivers navigate confidently by giving clear, practical information that improves orientation, comfort, and overall traffic flow.

This traffic sign indicates a dead end street. A dead end street (also called a cul-de-sac or no through road) is a road that ends without an exit — vehicles can enter but must turn around to leave, as there's no connection to another road.

This traffic sign indicates a detour for vehicles that are not allowed to pass. A detour for vehicles that are not allowed to pass is a specially indicated route for drivers whose vehicles are prohibited from continuing on a particular road — due to weight, height, width, emissions, or type restrictions.

This traffic sign indicates the end of the expressway. The end of the expressway indicates the point where the expressway (a controlled-access high-speed road) finishes, and traffic transitions onto regular roads with different traffic rules.

This traffic sign gives an overview of the lanes and the their direction. Choose the lane that indicates your destination. A lane overview sign (also called a lane allocation sign or lane guidance sign) provides drivers with a visual layout of upcoming lanes, showing how lanes split, merge, or continue ahead—especially before complex intersections, motorway exits, or tunnels.

This traffic sign gives an overview of the lanes and their direction. A lane overview sign provides drivers with a visual representation of the upcoming lane layout, showing how lanes divide, merge, or continue — especially useful before complex junctions, motorway exits, or tunnels.

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a new lane. The beginning of a new lane sign indicates where an additional traffic lane starts, allowing vehicles to merge into a wider roadway or providing space for overtaking.

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a motorway. The beginning of a motorway marks the start of a controlled-access highway designed for high-speed traffic with no intersections or traffic lights. Obey motorway regulations (e.g., no stopping except emergencies, no pedestrians, minimum speed limits).

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a zone with limited parking time. The beginning of a zone with limited parking time marks the start of an area where parking is allowed only for a restricted duration, even if parking is free. Time restrictions help prevent long-term parking in busy areas

This traffic sign indicates the end of the zone with limited parking time. The end of the zone with limited parking time indicates where the parking time restrictions that applied within the zone no longer apply. Different parking rules or no restrictions may apply beyond this point.

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a pedestrian zone. The beginning of a pedestrian zone marks the start of an area where only pedestrians (and sometimes cyclists) are allowed, and motor vehicles are restricted or prohibited. Motor vehicles are generally not allowed or limited to residents, deliveries, or emergency vehicles. Designed to create safe, traffic-free spaces for walking, shopping, and recreation

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a residential area. The beginning of a residential area marks the start of a zone primarily used for housing where special traffic rules apply to enhance safety and livability. Drive at reduced speeds (often around 20-30 km/h). Parking may be limited or restricted. Be extra vigilant for children playing and pedestrians.

This traffic sign indicates the end of the residential area. The end of the residential area indicates the point where the special traffic regulations of a residential zone cease to apply, and normal road rules resume.

This traffic sign indicates the national speed limits. National speed limits are the default maximum speeds allowed on different types of roads when no other specific speed limit signs are posted. Speed limits may vary based on weather conditions, vehicle type, or special zones. Lower speeds may apply in school zones, residential areas, or during roadworks.

This traffic sign indicates an advisory speed limit. An advisory speed limit is a recommended maximum speed for a particular section of road, suggesting a safe speed under normal conditions, but it is not legally binding. Advisory limits are especially important on curves, tunnels, or narrow roads. If conditions are poor (rain, fog, traffic), drive even slower.

This traffic sign indicates the end of the advisory speed limit. The end of the advisory speed limit sign indicates that the recommended speed restriction no longer applies, and drivers may adjust their speed according to regular road conditions or posted limits.
