Fold Up Sign - "Gully Emptying" Supplementary Text - TSRGD Diagram: 7000.1 - Road Works Supplementary Plates

Warn drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists of temporary maintenance activities involving the cleaning or emptying of road gullies, drains, or sewer access points. The press on studs allows for quick deployment and removal, making it ideal for work crews who move between multiple locations along a street or site. Clearly communicates the nature of the activity, ensuring that road users understand why caution is required in the area.

The main reason to use this sign is safety. Gully emptying often involves heavy machinery, open manholes, wet or slippery surfaces, and traffic disruption. By clearly marking the work zone, the sign alerts the public to potential hazards, helping prevent accidents, vehicle damage, or injury. It also ensures that maintenance crews comply with health and safety regulations by informing road users of ongoing work.

In terms of placement, the sign should be positioned in advance of the gully emptying operation so that approaching vehicles and pedestrians have enough warning to slow down, navigate around the area safely, or follow any temporary diversions. It is typically used on streets, parking areas, industrial sites, or any public area where gullies and drainage systems are being serviced. The fold-up design allows crews to relocate the sign as the work progresses or is completed.

Overall, this supplementary text provides portable, clear, and highly visible hazard communication. It is best suited for road maintenance teams, municipal services, and utility contractors, ensuring public safety and smooth operation during temporary drainage maintenance activities.
