Slow Moving Vehicles Likely on Incline Ahead Warning Sign – Diagram 583 | Permanent UK Traffic Sign
The Slow Moving Vehicles Likely on Incline Ahead Warning Sign – Diagram 583 is a key UK traffic sign used to alert drivers of a steep incline or descent where slow-moving heavy vehicles, such as lorries or HGVs, may be encountered. Commonly placed before long uphill climbs or steep downhill sections, this sign helps drivers prepare for reduced-speed traffic, overtaking restrictions, and potential hazards.
Fully compliant with TSRGD Diagram 583, BS EN 12899-1, and Chapter 4 of the Traffic Signs Manual, this permanent warning sign is available in RA2 or R3B reflective classes and manufactured from durable aluminium, composite, or self-adhesive sticker substrates for maximum durability and visibility in all weather conditions.
Available in all UK-standard triangle sizes — 450mm, 600mm, 750mm, 900mm, 1200mm, and 1500mm — and compatible with channel fixing rails, plate-only fittings, or adhesive backing to meet every installation need.
