Improvements for UK speed related signs

In the previous article "UK metric speed limit signs" we gave examples of what British metric speed limit signs would look like, and also showing the necessary changes and minimum changes from a purely metrication perspective.

In this article we will provide suggestions on how we can improve the British signage further, make them more consistent with international norms, and suggest some new signs. As a result we can reduce the need to have speed limits for everything, and potentially reduce the number of signs.

UK metric speed limit signs

In one of our previous articles "British Metric Road Signs: An overdue changeover", we added our voice to calls for metric road signs to appear in the UK as soon as possible. But what would the speed limit signs look like? We are going to explore what British speed limit signs will look like in this article.

In our next article, we will suggest how we can improve the British speed limit and speed related signage further, make them more consistent with international norms, and suggest some new signs. As a result we can reduce the need to have speed limits for everything, and potentially reduce the number of signs.
