Diversion direction sign

Information signsSign no. 4.34OSR art. 55

What the sign says

Orange ground: the sign marks the diversion route from end to end. On short diversions the destination may be left out.

The exam trap

You follow a diversion from one orange sign to the next, without guessing ahead: the closed stretch and the full route are announced beforehand on an advance sign.

The signs are the official depictions by the Federal Roads Office, from the annexes of the Signalling Ordinance (SR 741.21): official works, unprotected under Art. 5 of the Copyright Act. The explanations, by contrast, are written from federal law — never taken from a third-party catalogue.
