Champ d’application

This standard applies to the setting of traffic signs and markings on various roads, including highways, urban roads, and public areas such as parking lots and squares. It is mandatory for all new, modified, or replaced traffic signs and markings implemented after the effective date. It does not apply to off-road private facilities not open to public vehicles.

Exigences techniques

This standard establishes the overall principles for road traffic signs and markings, requiring them to meet user needs, attract attention, and convey clear meanings. It specifies general requirements regarding the color, shape, characters, and dimensions of signs and markings, referencing detailed specifications in GB 5768.2 and GB 5768.3. A key compliance rule is the information priority hierarchy: when traffic signs and markings conflict, the traffic sign prevails. Additionally, temporary signs override permanent ones, and variable message signs override static signs. The standard also includes a normative appendix detailing common graphical symbols, such as directional arrows and vehicle classifications, which must be scaled proportionally. Signs and markings must not convey non-traffic-related information like advertisements.

Méthodes d’essai

While this general standard does not specify detailed physical testing procedures, it mandates visual and informational consistency assessments. Compliance verification involves checking the proportional scaling of graphical symbols and ensuring the correct application of the information priority hierarchy during traffic management operations.
