Section 6.8 - Traffic Signs and Road Markings
Traffic Calming signs
Some towns and villages use road features, signs and markings for traffic calming, which generally involves slowing the pace of traffic and managing its flow at junctions. The signs used for traffic calming are regulatory, warning and information. When you enter one of these towns or villages, you will see an information sign that may be combined with the town or village name and a speed limit sign.
In these towns, expect the following speed reducing measures:
- traffic islands,
- gateways,
- mini-roundabouts,
- build-outs,
- chicanes, and
- pinch points.
You may also come across the following signs on residential roads in built-up areas. These signs indicate that the road includes ramps, speed cushions or speed tables.
