Divided Highway Sign

This sign is often found on an approach to a separate roadway.

What it means

A divided highway sign alerts drivers and other road users that the road ahead is divided by a physical barrier or medians like a strip of land, guard rail, or concrete barrier. Once a driver notices the indicator, they should be alert and watch out for the physical barrier ahead. They should also take necessary action to guarantee safety, like slowing down.

Heads Up

  • These signs warn that the highway ahead is split into two separate roadways by a median or divider and each roadway is one-way. Keep to the right.
  • It is also worth noting that one will only find the signs on an approach to a separate roadway and not before a junction or an intersection.
  • These signs are meant to alert drivers to prepare for a physical division in the highway.
