Diversion - Arrow Left - Class RA1 - Temporary - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

A “Diversion – Arrow Left” sign is used to direct drivers and pedestrians to follow a temporary detour route that turns to the left. This sign is essential when the usual road or pathway is closed or obstructed due to roadworks, maintenance, or special events, helping ensure that traffic is safely and clearly guided around the affected area.

The sign should be installed at points where the diversion route requires a left turn, typically positioned well before the turn to give road users ample time to prepare and follow the correct path. It is commonly found along temporary traffic management routes in urban and rural settings where normal traffic flow is disrupted.

Using this sign enhances safety and reduces confusion by providing clear, visible directions that help prevent drivers from making incorrect turns or entering closed sections of the road. It supports smooth traffic movement and helps avoid congestion or accidents during the diversion.

Overall, the “Diversion – Arrow Left” sign is a vital tool in temporary traffic control, ensuring drivers and pedestrians can navigate safely and efficiently through alternative routes when usual roads are inaccessible.
