What is a Linear Guidance Sign?

[AliyahFitz]

Linear guidance signs are traffic signs used to guide or warn drivers of changes in the horizontal alignment of the road ahead, prompting them to adjust their driving direction appropriately according to the alignment to ensure safe operation. Here are the specific details: 1. Location: Linear guidance signs should be installed on road sections where the driving direction changes, such as small-radius curve sections, ramps, sharp bend sections, etc. 2. Direction: The placement of linear guidance signs should align with the road alignment and be perpendicular to the direction of vehicle travel. Here are some additional details: 1. Spacing: The spacing of linear guidance signs should ensure that at least two signs are always within the driver's field of vision. 2. Angle: For curve sections with a small deflection angle, one guidance sign can be placed at the midpoint of the curve; for curves with a large deflection angle or long curve sections, multiple guidance signs can be installed as needed. 3. Height: The minimum installation height of linear guidance signs should be 1.2 meters from the lower edge of the sign to the ground.
