3. Zone
A traffic zone is an area in which a traffic rule applies throughout all included roads or road sections. The rule normally begins at a zone-entry sign and remains applicable until the corresponding end-of-zone sign is passed.
Zones may regulate speed, parking, access, vehicle categories, emissions or other traffic behaviour. The signs used, the roads covered and the effect of intersections or local exceptions depend on local traffic law.

How do people refer to traffic zones in Turkey?
Turkey’s maximum-speed zone is called an azami hız bölgesi. It has a corresponding azami hız bölgesi sonu sign marking its end. The entrance displays the maximum for the zone.

Where does a zone rule apply in Turkey?
Apply the displayed maximum throughout the area covered by the speed-zone signing. Do not confuse the zone entrance with an ordinary circular speed sign applying to a road section.

How do you know when a traffic zone ends in Turkey?
The corresponding maximum-speed-zone end sign identifies the boundary. Beyond it, follow the applicable road and vehicle limit and any new sign; the end panel does not authorise unlimited speed.
