What is an Arrow Board?
An arrow board is a highly visible electronic traffic control sign that provides clear directional guidance to motorists approaching lane closures, temporary lanes. work zones and changing traffic conditions. They are commonly used on roads, highways, construction sites, mining operations, public events and incident response locations to reduce confusion, improve traffic flow and lower the risk of merging incidents in temporary traffic situations.
Using bright flashing LED arrows, these signs clearly indicate the direction motorists should travel when approaching lane closures, roadworks, accident scenes or other traffic disruptions. Their high visibility also makes them effective during both daytime and night-time operations, and their heavy-duty design ensures reliability in demanding environments.
Depending on site requirements, operators can display a left arrow, right arrow or double arrow configuration to communicate clear instructions well before drivers reach the affected area.
For more information about our high visibility arrow boards and how they help organisations meet VicRoads and RMS traffic management requirements, take a look at our detailed guide.
