The white arrow pointing down to the right, on an Ø80 cm blue disc with class II prismatic sheeting. It goes on the nose of islands and dividers on national roads, where it has to be the first thing seen at night, ahead of the obstacle.
Class II means RA2 prismatic sheeting, which sends back three to four times more light than class I sheeting. It matters on fast roads and wherever the sign is seen at an angle, and in areas with street lighting, shop windows and advertising SR 1848-2 explicitly requires it, alongside class 3. The sheeting has a guaranteed 10-year service life.
It goes at the ends of refuges, traffic islands and spaces separating carriageways, or before another obstacle on the road, where vehicles must pass the obstacle on the right, as the arrow shows. It is usually installed with the A45 directional marker, which also shows passing on the right; in class II, the A45_II.
Fixings for the post are included: 2 clamps for Ø48 mm posts and 4 bolts with nuts; clamps for Ø60 mm posts are available on request. The bottom edge of the sign goes 1.50–2.50 m above the road or kerb, and the edge nearest the road 0.50–2.0 m from the road platform. On traffic islands, central reservations and tram refuges, the bottom edge can be 0.60–2.50 m above kerb level (SR 1848-2).
The post is ordered separately. For a fixed installation in a concrete foundation: the galvanised Ø48 mm post, 300 cm. For temporary use, with no foundation: the Ø48 mm tripod post, 120 cm. On concrete or paving, where you cannot dig: the Ø60 mm flange post, 300 cm, bolted down; for it, ask for the Ø60 mm clamps when you order.
The 80 cm diameter is the large format in SR 1848-2, required on national roads; motorways use the very large 100 cm format. County and local roads, streets and private roads open to public traffic only need the normal Ø60 cm format: the class I sheeting version is the D5a.

It is usually installed with the A45 directional marker, which also shows passing on the right; in class II, the A45_II.
It is larger than the D5a: Ø80 cm instead of Ø60 cm, and the class II (RA2) prismatic sheeting returns three to four times more light, with a guaranteed 10-year service life instead of 7.
No. SR 1848-2 forbids using signs smaller than the format set for the road's category. National roads require the large Ø80 cm format, and motorways the very large Ø100 cm format.
SR 1848-2 requires prismatic class 2 or 3 sheeting in areas with many light sources: street lighting, shop windows, advertising, dense urban areas. Elsewhere, class II is chosen for better visibility on fast roads and where the sign is seen at an angle.
The pack holds 2 clamps for Ø48 mm posts and 4 bolts with nuts. Clamps for Ø60 mm posts are available on request, a better fit for large signs or windy locations.
Yes. SR 1848-1:2024 allows small signs where there is no room for a normal-sized one, for example at tram stop refuges or at the ends of the double barrier separating the directions on roads with several lanes each way.
