Road Signs Cantilever signs are informative traffic signs labeled with the names of roads and areas within cities to guide drivers and facilitate traffic flow.
Similar to cantilever road signs are gantry road sign, which are larger in size and bear the names and directions of other cities.
Road signs are divided into gantry road signs, cantilever road signs, and street names signs.
Uses of Road Signs Cantilever Signs:
Road Signs: cantilever road signs that regulate traffic on roads. They are usually made of high-strength aluminum and covered with plates of reflective film to reflect the light and make them more visible. Traffic signs have specific shapes, symbols, and marks known to all licensed drivers. They are classified into:
- Construction site signs.
- Regulatory signs.
- Informative signs.
- Warning signs.
Features of Road Signs Cantilever Signs:
Gantry and cantilever road signs are shared in:
- Aluminum faceplate covered with high-quality reflective film.
- Heavy-duty iron mounts coated with zinc to withstand changing weather conditions.
- Steel pole mounts that fit the signs’ mounting locations to resist wind.
Street name signs consist of:
- An aluminum box in different sizes showing information on its sides.
- High-strength aluminum poles.
- Screws for mounting and fixing.
- These are mounted on medians in main, side, and inner residential streets, as well as squares.
All aforementioned signs are made according to modern technical standards with regard to size, clear writing, reflective surfaces, and precision of the direction of drawn elements.
These signs can show constant or changing messages, and they improve the aesthetics of the road.
Reflective films with high reflectivity and resistance to weather conditions such as rain, humidity, dust, and sandstorms are used in these signs.
Road signs facilitate traffic flow and save drivers time and effort, thereby improving traffic safety.
Installation locations:
Gantry road signs are installed on highways such as airport roads and main roads, while cantilever road signs are used on road exits and side roads.
Street name signs are installed on the central median areas of side streets, internal quarters, and squares to show street names and provide drivers and road users with guiding information.
