Regulatory Signs

Understanding De-Restriction Signs

De-Restriction Signs

Where: On any road where a previous restriction sign has been displayed.

Purpose: This sign is used to cancel or lift a restriction that was previously indicated by another regulatory sign. It informs drivers that the rules or limits shown on the earlier sign no longer apply beyond this point.

Action Required by Driver: From this point onward, you are no longer required to comply with the restriction that was indicated by the previous sign with a similar symbol. The cancellation sign is recognized by the same symbol as the original restriction sign but displayed without the red diagonal cross.
