Guidelines on the correct use of regulatory signs prescribed by the traffic signs regulations. These include prohibited turns, waiting and loading restrictions, bus and cycle lanes etc. There is also a comprehensive section dealing with the signing of speed limits. Chapter 4 warning signs (ISBN 9780115524110) How sign faces are designed. This chapter does not include the various methods by which signs are constructed and mounted. It supersedes Local Transport Note ‘2/94 directional informatory signs interim design notes’, which was withdrawn in 1997. Chapter 8 (part 1) road works and temporary situations - design (ISBN 9780115530517)

Markings for Zebra, Pelican and Puffin crossings are prescribed in the Zebra, Pelican and Puffin Pedestrian Crossings Regulations and General Directions 1997 (the Pedestrian Crossings Regulations). Toucan and equestrian crossings are marked using diagrams 1001.3, 1055.1 and 1055.2 prescribed in the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002. More detailed guidance on the provision of pedestrian crossings can be found in Local Transport Notes 1 / 95 ( ISBN 0-11-551625-5) and 2 / 95 ( ISBN 0-11-551626-3). The full manual consists of 8 chapters (technically 10 as chapter 8 is split into 3 parts) for clarity, with each chapter describing a different topic from the other.It is not usually necessary to reflectorise waiting restriction lines as they do not normally have a guidance function. However, reflectorisation may be advantageous where such lines are used on the rural outskirts of a town and the road edge is unkerbed, or where a reflectorised edge of carriageway marking immediately precedes such markings. If the yellow lines are reflectorised, any associated parking bays should be also. The spacing of road studs used with double white lines is dealt with in para #5.115.11. The spacing of studs used with centre lines and lane lines is described in tables 4-1, 4-2 and 4-3, and studs used in conjunction with continuous edge lines or with diagram 1010 in table 4-5 and para 10.11.

ii) diagram 1040.2 must be used on the approach to a staggered crossing (Schedule 4, Part I, para 3(3)). This format proved to be unwieldy and was replaced with separate volumes starting in 1977, which also dealt with the issues presented by metricating all dimensions.Road markings are applied using thermoplastic, cold plastic, preformed material or paint. They may be laid as permanent markings or as temporary markings at road works.
