Height Restriction (Specify Height) - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Used to warn drivers of a maximum vehicle height allowed to pass under a structure, such as a bridge, tunnel, or overhead barrier. By clearly specifying the limit, the sign helps prevent collisions that could damage vehicles, infrastructure, or both.

These signs are typically placed in advance of low-clearance areas to give drivers enough time to slow down, stop, or choose an alternate route. Proper placement ensures that over-height vehicles do not approach restricted zones, avoiding accidents and costly damage.

In industrial zones, car parks, and sites with bridges or overhead structures, the Height Restriction sign is crucial for safety. Delivery trucks, forklifts, excavators, and other tall vehicles rely on these signs to navigate safely, preventing obstruction and traffic disruption caused by vehicles getting stuck or hitting the structure.

Additionally, the Height Restriction (Specify Height) sign supports operational safety and traffic management. It protects infrastructure, reduces liability risks, and ensures smooth traffic flow by guiding drivers to routes suitable for their vehicle dimensions.
