U Turn (SYM) (600x600mm) corflute sign panel displays a black U-turn arrow symbol on a yellow retroreflective background. It is used in temporary traffic management setups to provide directional U-turn symbol information where a U-turn movement is specified as part of a detour, diversion or changed traffic arrangement.

This is a standard-derived temporary traffic management directional / turn movement sign panel. No verified national sign code has been supplied for this exact 600x600mm U Turn symbolic panel unless a verified national code or drawing is separately supplied and confirmed.

UAGS temporary traffic sign corflute panels are manufactured from 6mm UV stabilised corflute using Class 400T retroreflective yellow sheeting with opaque black printing. The black U-turn symbol, black border and yellow retroreflective background support directional U-turn messaging where this panel is specified.

This 600x600mm corflute sign panel is compatible with Multi-Message Sign Frame No. 1 arrangements where the frame configuration accepts 600x600mm panels and the overall sign arrangement is suitable. It may also be used with other suitable temporary roadwork sign frame systems that accept 600x600mm corflute panels, subject to the required frame setup and site arrangement.

In practical use, this panel may be used for temporary detours, road closures, diversion routes, event traffic management, emergency detour routing, changed traffic arrangements, intersection works, lane changes, roadworks, civil works, utility works and other temporary traffic control layouts where a U-turn movement is specified.

Where specified for the site arrangement, related panels may include Detour Left, Detour Ahead, directional arrow panels, Road Closed, Road Closed Ahead, Changed Traffic Conditions, Road Work Ahead, Prepare To Stop, Traffic Controller, Reduce Speed, Lane Closed, Merge or other suitable supplementary context panels.

This panel provides directional U-turn symbol information only. It does not create, authorise or legally enforce a U-turn movement, detour route, road closure, diversion, lane change, traffic direction, site compliance, TMP validity, TGS validity or approved traffic management arrangement by itself. Selection, placement, panel pairing, visibility, frame arrangement and use remain subject to the applicable TMP, TGS, detour arrangement, diversion arrangement, U-turn movement arrangement, traffic control arrangement, site arrangement, project requirements, site conditions and relevant authority requirements.
