Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to the setting of traffic signs and markings related to non-motor vehicles and pedestrians on various roads, including highways, urban roads, and public passage areas like squares and parking lots. It is mandatory for all new or modified traffic signs and markings upon implementation. It references GB 5768.1, GB 5768.2, and GB 5768.3 for general requirements.
Technical requirements
This standard specifies the design and placement requirements for traffic control devices targeting non-motorized road users. It covers the general provisions where signs must not intrude into the road construction clearance and must coordinate with existing traffic devices. For non-motor vehicle lanes, it details the placement of lane signs, boundary lines between motor and non-motor vehicles, and specific markings for lanes adjacent to parking spaces. Signal-controlled intersections must position non-motor vehicle stop lines ahead of motor vehicle stop lines. Regarding non-motor vehicle paths and shared paths, the standard mandates specific warning signs at intersections with motor vehicles. Shared paths for non-motor vehicles and pedestrians must have a speed limit not exceeding 20km/h. It also specifies the use of solid or dashed lines to separate opposing traffic or pedestrians based on safety needs. For pedestrian facilities, it outlines the requirements for crosswalk markings, upstream no-parking zones, and signs for pedestrian streets. It also includes guidelines for guide signs directing non-motor vehicles and pedestrians to public facilities.
Testing methods
As a design and placement standard, GB 5768.7-2018 does not specify laboratory testing methods. Instead, it provides visual and spatial evaluation criteria, such as sign dimensions, marking distances, and placement protocols to ensure compliance with the mandatory traffic control requirements.
