Two-Way Traffic Sign: Safety and Clarity on the Road

The "Two-way traffic" road sign, identified by figure II.26 of the Implementing Regulation of the Highway Code (Presidential Decree 495/1992, art. 97), is a crucial element of danger signs. Its main function is to warn drivers who are about to take or enter a stretch of road where the carriageway is two-way traffic, thus ensuring greater awareness and prevention of potentially dangerous situations.

Technical and Construction Features

This sign is made of galvanized sheet metal, with a thickness of 10/10 mm (1 mm), guaranteeing resistance and durability over time. Its shape is triangular, with the vertex facing upwards, and has a side of 90 cm, the standard size for use on non-urban roads, where optimal visibility from a distance is essential. The surface is coated with a Class 1 (RA1) reflective film, which ensures excellent visibility even in low light conditions or at night, thanks to its ability to reflect vehicle headlights.

Maximum Visibility and Easy Installation

The colors of the sign are distinctive and compliant with regulations: a white background that contrasts with a bright red border. In the center, a black pictogram shows two opposite arrows, one upwards and one downwards, which unequivocally symbolize the two-way traffic. As far as mounting is concerned, the sign is equipped with special rear channels, designed for quick and safe installation on galvanized poles. Strategic positioning before the start of the two-way road section is essential to adequately warn drivers, especially at critical points such as re-entering from one-way streets, bridges or tunnels with narrow carriageways, and in all urban or suburban sections where you change from a one-way to a two-way carriageway.
