This licence does NOT cover: Words are formed by butting the letter tiles together. The tile widths, listed in Appendix C, have been designed to ensure the correct spacing of the letters. However, for certain combinations of letters the tile widths have to be adjusted and these special tile widths are also specified in Appendix C.

How sign faces are designed. This chapter does not include the various methods by which signs are constructed and mounted. It supersedes Local Transport Note ‘2/94 directional informatory signs interim design notes’, which was withdrawn in 1997. Chapter 8 (part 1) road works and temporary situations - design (ISBN 9780115530517) The current advice on the design and use of directional informatory signs is published in Local Transport Note ( LTN) 1/94. Also available is the latest list of primary destinations in England (PDF, 64.4KB), which supersedes the information in LTN 1/94. Chapter 3 regulatory signs (ISBN 9780115529252) Traffic lights and crossings are a key tool in managing traffic. This chapter provides technical advice on designing traffic light junctions, crossings, and other types of traffic control. It supersedes the advice given in a range of traffic advisory leaflets and local transport notes. Chapter 7 the design of traffic signs (ISBN 9780115524806) The number of lines of legend in the top panel will depend on the overall width of the sign. Where the top panel is the critical element in determining the width of the sign, the legend should be on two lines if this results in a reduction in the overall size of the sign, or where the width of the sign needs to be kept to a minimum for siting purposes.The tile height for any alphabet is twice the x-height (i.e. 8 sw). Thus for an x-height of 250 mm the tile height is 500 mm. For the two motorway alphabets, where there are no lower case letters, the units of measurement are still x-heights and stroke widths. Thus if the x-height of the main sign is 300 mm the tile height for both the Transport Medium and Motorway alphabets is 600 mm. To ensure correct letter spacing when forming a word, the characters in each alphabet are placed on imaginary tiles. The tiles vary in width, according to the size of the character, and have a fixed height which ensures correct line spacing. All design spaces are measured to the edge of the tiles and not to the actual characters, unless special rules state otherwise. Tile outlines must not appear on the finished sign. Guidelines on the correct use of regulatory signs prescribed by the traffic signs regulations. These include prohibited turns, waiting and loading restrictions, bus and cycle lanes etc. There is also a comprehensive section dealing with the signing of speed limits.
