About
Courtesy signs, also known as information boards, are used at worksites to communicate key information to road users. Information boards must be displayed at all street and road works sites, except for mobile, short-duration, or minor works that don’t involve excavation. However, they are still highly recommended at these sites when it is safe and practicable to use them. Information boards give the name of the organisation undertaking the works, any principal contractor, and an emergency contact number. Wherever practical, they should also contain other information that will be helpful in explaining to the public why the work is being done, how long it will take, and a message apologising for the inconvenience. Our range of information signs complies with temporary road signage standards in the UK, covering all grades of reflectivity and materials such as Zintec, QuickFit, Correx, and plastic. These boards should be placed so that they don't obstruct footways or carriageways, but can be read by pedestrians and any drivers who have stopped close to the board. For this reason, we also stock single-cone, double-cone, and barrier-mounted options for ease of installation.
