Traffic Circle Retro Reflective Road sign (W201)

The Traffic Circle road sign (W201) is a road layout warning sign used to alert drivers that a traffic circle or roundabout is located ahead. It provides advance notice so drivers can reduce speed and prepare to yield where required.

Typical applications

• Urban and rural intersections
• Locations where a roundabout may not be immediately visible

Action guidance

• Reduce speed on approach
• Yield to traffic circulating within the traffic circle
• If no signage indicates otherwise, yield to vehicles approaching from the right
