Description
TC 1257, TC 1173 AND TC 1174 Traffic Controller – Prepare To Stop – Do Not Overtake Multi Message – 1200x900mm – Roll-Up Traffic Control Sign
The TC1257, TC1173 and TC1174 Traffic Controller – Prepare To Stop – Do Not Overtake Multi Message Roll-Up Traffic Control Sign is a complete 1200x900mm temporary traffic control sign system designed for worksites where traffic controllers are actively managing vehicle movements.
Combining TC1257 Traffic Controller, TC1173 Prepare To Stop and TC1174 Do Not Overtake, the modular assembly provides approaching motorists with clear advance warning of traffic controller operations, an instruction to prepare to stop and a restriction on overtaking through the temporary traffic management zone.
Manufactured using CL400 Class 1W reflective material, the sign provides high daytime and low-light visibility. The complete 1200x900mm configuration uses two 600x600mm upper panels positioned above one 1200x300mm lower panel and is designed for use within Queensland temporary traffic management applications.
Sign Function
TC1257, TC1173 and TC1174 work together to provide motorists with a structured sequence of traffic control information. The TC1257 Traffic Controller panel provides advance warning of active traffic controller operations, TC1173 Prepare To Stop instructs approaching motorists to anticipate stopping, and TC1174 Do Not Overtake reinforces the overtaking restriction through the controlled work zone.
Main Advantage
One modular 1200x900mm sign system communicates three critical traffic control messages within a single installation. The interchangeable panel configuration provides greater flexibility than carrying multiple complete signs and allows traffic management crews to change individual message panels as worksite requirements change.
