Which sign means a temporary lane closure ahead?

• A. Temporary lane closure
• B. Tourist information point
• C. Area in which cameras are used to enforce traffic regulations
• D. No through road for vehicles

Answer: (A)

Recognising that a sign reading “Temporary lane closure” indicates that one or more traffic lanes ahead will be closed, usually due to roadworks or an incident. When you see it, slow down as needed, merge early and smoothly as directed, and follow any temporary traffic signals or cones. Expect possible delays and be prepared for changing traffic patterns and queueing. The other signs point to different information: a tourist information point provides travel advice, not lane changes; an area where cameras enforce traffic regulations relates to monitoring, not lane closures; and a no through road sign means the road doesn’t allow through traffic, which is not the same as a temporary lane closure.
