2.3.5. A distance plate should be used when the distance between the sign and the merge point
is different from that recommended in
Appendix A
(but see
1.9.1
).
2.4 Roundabouts
2.4.1. The sign to diagram 510 (S2‑2‑7, see
Figure 2-8
) should not be used to indicate the
approach to a roundabout where adequate warning is conveyed by a map‑type advance
direction sign or where the roundabout is clearly visible to approaching drivers. It may be used
with supplementary plates to diagram 511 (S2‑3‑1), 513.1A (S2‑2‑4) or a distance. “Adverse
camber” may be used in place of the 513.1A lorry adverse camber plate. The roundabout
warning sign should be used only for true roundabouts. It should not be used to give advance
warning of a gyratory system or where the approach to an otherwise standard roundabout is
controlled by signals.
2.4.2. On high standard all‑purpose dual carriageway roads subject to a speed limit of 70 mph,
diagram 510 should be used in addition to the map‑type advance direction sign and be
supplemented by a plate to diagram 511 “REDUCE SPEED NOW” (see
Figure 2-9
). One sign
and plate should be situated on the central reservation 500 m in advance of the roundabout,
with a duplicate on the left side 450 m in advance (see also
