Chris, that as you state is the law in W.A. ,,not so in QLD, the minimum signage required for roadwork in QLD.
A. roadwork ahead
B. 40klm speed sign
these advisory and speed signs should start 150mtrs from the work site if in a built up area.
roadworks on the h/way obviously require more signage,a typical LEGAL flow is as follows
A. roadwork ahead. [1klm from job site]
B. 80klm speed sign [800 mtrs from job site]
C. slow sign [700 mtrs ]
D 60klm speed sign [600mtrs from job site]
E. workmen ahead [550mtrs ]
F. 40klm speed sign [400 mtrs from job site]
G. flagman/
stop sign ahead [300mtrs from job site]
H. The actual
stop sign and or "lollypop" man if/as required
In QLD you can be " booked " for speeding thru a signed job site by the LICENSED traffic controller who informs the
police of your dangerous actions through an incident report.
