What Does a One-Way Traffic Line Look Like?

On a one-way traffic section, there is a blue sign with a white arrow erected at the beginning of the section. As for the lane direction guide lines, there are blue signs with white arrows at each approaching intersection, and arrows on the lanes indicating the direction of travel. Here is some relevant information about one-way traffic signs: 1. Introduction: These signs indicate that the road is a one-way street and are divided into three types: left one-way, right one-way, and straight one-way signs. 2. Requirements for one-way signs: One-way traffic organization must be coordinated with other traffic management and engineering measures, such as connecting the passages between one-way streets, setting up clear and continuous signs and markings, reasonably adjusting bus stops on one-way streets, and optimizing intersection signals to improve the overall efficiency of the one-way street system.
A one-way traffic line is a solid line on the road, usually white or yellow, with a large arrow in the middle indicating the direction of travel. Having driven for over a decade, I've seen these most often on urban one-way streets, like those in city alleys, where the arrow clearly points in one direction, reminding you to drive forward only—no U-turns or going the wrong way. They're often accompanied by blue signs with white letters saying 'ONE WAY,' hung high above. Once, while driving in an old neighborhood, I nearly went the wrong way because I didn't notice the line, but thankfully I braked in time. A ticket would have been the least of my worries—safety is the real concern. Always take a quick glance at the road; these lines are designed to be highly visible to prevent traffic jams and collisions.
