Merge Right TM2-40B (1200x300mm) corflute sign panel displays a MERGE RIGHT message for temporary traffic management setups where a merge-right lane-status message is specified as part of a broader lane-status, merge taper or roadwork traffic control arrangement.

The panel is commonly used where traffic is being managed around a lane reduction, temporary lane closure, resurfacing works, bridge works, shoulder closure or staged construction area and the applicable traffic management arrangement requires traffic to merge right.

The signface layout, legend and colours follow the applicable AS 1743:2023 signface design for TM2-40B.

UAGS temporary traffic sign corflute panels are manufactured on 6mm UV stabilised corflute using Class 400T retroreflective yellow sheeting for temporary traffic management sign applications. The black uppercase MERGE RIGHT legend on yellow retroreflective background supports clear identification of the merge-right message within the broader sign arrangement.

This 1200x300mm corflute sign panel is designed to slide into compatible temporary roadwork sign frames, including suitable Multi-Message Sign Frame No. 1 lower panel arrangements where the frame accepts a 1200x300mm corflute panel. Frame suitability depends on the panel size, frame configuration, required panel combination and site requirements.

This panel is normally used as part of a compatible multi-message lane-status sign arrangement for merge tapers where the MERGE RIGHT message is specified. It should not be described as a standalone lane closure, standalone merge taper or complete traffic control arrangement by itself.

Selection, panel combination, sign sequencing, placement and use remain subject to the applicable TMP, TGS, project requirements, site conditions and relevant authority requirements.

Typical use may include lane reductions, temporary lane closures, resurfacing works, bridge works, shoulder closures, staged construction and other changed traffic condition setups where the applicable TMP, TGS or site arrangement requires the merge-right message.

Is this a regulatory sign panel?

No. This product is classified as a standard-listed lane-status / merge taper temporary traffic management sign panel. It should not be described as a regulatory sign panel or as creating, authorising or legally enforcing a lane change, lane closure, merge requirement or traffic movement by itself.

What do the TM2-V101(R) and VicRoads Drawing No. 541495 references mean?

TM2-V101(R) and VicRoads Drawing No. 541495 are state or legacy references for identification only. They must not be treated as road authority approval, legal enforceability, site compliance or confirmation of suitability for every project.

How should the Queensland Guide to Temporary Traffic Management reference be treated?

The Queensland Guide to Temporary Traffic Management, Part 3, Static Worksites, Figure 5.9.1(a) shows MERGE LEFT / MERGE RIGHT panels used with lane-status signs for merge tapers. This reference is deployment-context information only and must not be treated as a product approval claim or as confirmation that this panel alone creates a compliant merge taper arrangement.

Can this panel be used by itself?

This panel should not be described as a standalone lane closure, standalone merge taper or complete traffic control arrangement by itself. It is normally used as part of a compatible multi-message lane-status sign arrangement where the MERGE RIGHT message is specified.

What frame does this panel suit?

This 1200x300mm corflute sign panel is designed to slide into compatible temporary roadwork sign frames, including suitable Multi-Message Sign Frame No. 1 lower panel arrangements where the frame accepts a 1200x300mm corflute panel.

Does this panel create a compliant merge taper or lane closure setup?

No. This panel alone does not create a compliant merge taper, lane closure or traffic management setup. Correct use depends on the broader temporary traffic management arrangement, including the required full sign assembly, panel combination, support frame, signing, delineation, placement and site controls under the applicable TMP, TGS, project requirements, site conditions and relevant authority requirements.
