Keep Clear for Emergency Vehicles - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

A “Keep Clear for Emergency Vehicles” sign is essential to ensure that designated areas remain free from obstruction so that emergency vehicles—such as fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars—can quickly and safely access the building or site during an emergency. Blocking these areas can delay emergency response times, potentially worsening the situation and putting lives and property at greater risk.

The sign serves as a clear reminder to drivers, staff, and visitors not to park or block these critical zones. It helps maintain a dedicated, unobstructed space for emergency vehicles to maneuver, park, and operate efficiently during urgent situations.

These signs should be installed at entrances to fire lanes, near emergency vehicle access points, outside hospitals, schools, large commercial buildings, factories, and anywhere emergency vehicles need immediate access. They are often placed on gates, fences, or walls close to emergency exits or fire stations on site.

By using “Keep Clear for Emergency Vehicles” signs, building managers and property owners support timely emergency response, improve overall safety, and help protect both people and property by ensuring emergency services can reach the scene without delay.
