The permanent warning sign indicated by diagram 523 is used to warn drivers of a steep downward gradient ahead
The percentage marked on the sign varies depending on the road conditions, and in our example, the sign indicates a 10% downward gradient
This means that for every meter traveled, the elevation will decrease by 0.1 meters
This sign is often used in combination with supplementary plates 525, 526, and 527, which warn drivers to use a low gear to regulate speed and prevent overheating of their brakes
Due to the unique nature of this sign, it is made to order based on the specific gradient of the road, we have pre-select gradients available. However if you require a custom gradient percentage please contact us.
The gradient is rounded to the nearest whole number according to government guidelines
For example, a gradient of 10.4% would be rounded to 10%, while 11.6% would be rounded to 12%
