Vehicle Length Restriction Sign – Diagram 629.1A | Permanent UK Traffic Sign
The Vehicle Length Restriction Sign – Diagram 629.1A is a vital UK road sign used to indicate that vehicles longer than the specified length are not permitted beyond that point. It is essential for managing safety on narrow roads, restricted entryways, weight-sensitive bridges, or areas with tight curves where longer vehicles could cause congestion or hazards.
Featuring a lorry icon, dual-headed arrows, and a numerical length value (in feet and inches), this circular sign communicates restriction clearly and effectively. It meets all compliance requirements under TSRGD Diagram 629.1A, BS EN 12899-1, and Chapter 3 of the Traffic Signs Manual.
Manufactured in the UK with RA2 or R3B reflective materials, it is available in 300mm to 1500mm sizes. Options include aluminium, composite, and self-adhesive vinyl, with mounting solutions such as channel rail, plate-only, or adhesive back for permanent or temporary use.
🔧 Technical Review
The Diagram 629.1A sign is strategically used in rural lanes, access-restricted routes, and urban infrastructure prone to turning radius or clearance limitations. It helps reduce infrastructure damage and prevent blockages by pre-warning drivers of length limits.
