1.1.9Information and direction signs

信息及方向指示标志

此类标志提示距离及目的地信息的。一般为绿色背景白字的矩形标志版。
Here are some common information and direction signs:
下列是常见的信息及指示标志：

Shows directions to nearby towns and cities.
指示驶往附近城镇和都市的方向

Shows the distances in kilometres to towns and cities on the road.
指示驶往附近城镇和都市公路里程（公里数）

Various exit signs are used on freeways. In urban areas, many exit ramps have more than one lane. Overhead and ground-mounted signs help drivers choose the correct lane to exit or stay on the freeway.
多出口标志设置于高速公路上。在城市区域，很多出口匝道不只一条车道。公路上方及路旁地面设置的标志帮助司机选择正确的车道，以便驾离或继续在高速上行驶。

Advance signs use arrows to show which lanes lead off the freeway. Signs are also posted at the exit.
前置标志用箭头指示离开高速的车道。这类标志也被安装在出口外位。

Sometimes one or more lanes may lead off the freeway. The arrows matching the exit lanes are shown on the advance sign in a yellow box with the word 'exit' under them.
有时沿一条或多条车道可以驶离高速公路。前置标志上会标出与出口车道数相同数量的箭头指示，并在箭头下方配以写有“出口” 字样的黄色方块。

Freeway interchanges or exits have numbers that correspond to the distance from the beginning of the freeway. For example, interchange number 204 on Highway 401 is 204 kilometres from Windsor, where the freeway begins. Distances can be calculated by subtracting one interchange number from another.
高速公路交通枢纽及出口都有数字，此数字与数字对应的地点和高速公路起点之间距离有相应联系。列如，高速公路401上第204号交通枢纽，表示这地点与Windson之相距204公里，Windson是401公路的起点。这样，就可以通过路标数字的相减，计算出两点间的距离。

 

The term 'VIA' is used to describe the roads that must be followed to reach a destination.
术语“VIA”表示必须按指示道路行驶才能抵达目的地。

 

These signs change according to traffic conditions to give drivers current information on delays and lane closures ahead.
此标志牌会为司机提供前方实时路况信息，信息包括前方道路拥堵及车道封闭等情况。
