PassRickshaws Prohibited
Where: This sign is displayed on any public road, lane, path, or designated area where rickshaws (hand-pulled or pedal-powered) are not permitted to enter or operate. It is commonly found at the entrance to high-traffic roads, city centres, or pedestrian zones; on lanes or roads reserved for motor vehicles or cyclists; near schools, construction zones, or environmentally sensitive areas; and in restricted areas where rickshaw traffic could interfere with safety or traffic flow.
Purpose: The purpose of this sign is to prohibit rickshaws from entering a specific area. This restriction is enforced to protect pedestrians and cyclists from potential accidents caused by rickshaws, maintain smooth traffic flow in busy or narrow streets, ensure safety in areas not designed for rickshaw traffic, and protect infrastructure from potential wear caused by frequent rickshaw use in sensitive zones.
Action Required by Driver: If you are pulling or riding a rickshaw, do not proceed beyond this sign. Look for alternative routes or areas where rickshaws are permitted. Non-compliance may result in fines, penalties, or enforcement action. Note: This sign applies to all types of rickshaws, whether hand-pulled or pedal-powered.
