PassTour Buses Prohibited
Where: This sign is displayed on any public road, lane, path, or designated area where tour buses are not permitted to enter or operate. It is commonly found at the entrance to residential areas, city centres, or narrow streets not designed for large buses; on lanes or roads reserved for smaller vehicles, public transport, or cyclists; in tourist or pedestrian zones where large tour buses could cause congestion; and near schools, parks, or environmentally sensitive areas where heavy or large vehicles are restricted.
Purpose: The purpose of this sign is to prohibit tour buses from entering a specific road or area. This restriction is enforced to enhance safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and other road users, reduce congestion caused by large buses stopping or turning in restricted areas, protect infrastructure such as roads, bridges, or narrow streets not designed for heavy or long vehicles, and control traffic flow by directing tour buses to approved routes or designated bus bays.
Action Required by Driver: If you are driving a tour bus, do not proceed beyond this sign. Use alternative roads or routes specifically designated for tour buses, and be aware of supplementary signs that may indicate time restrictions, exemptions, or local access conditions.
