2.2 End of Main Road

The end of the stretch from which the road ceases to be the major road. Where the major road ends before a crossing with a road that has priority at that junction, sign 2.2 stands in advance together with sign 2.4 outside a built-up area, and 25 metres from the junction and/or together with sign 2.3 or 2.4 within one.

2.4 No Entry Without Stopping

Forbids the driver to go on without stopping at the stop line, or where there is none, at the edge of the carriageway being crossed. The driver must give way to traffic on the road being crossed, or — where plate 8.13 is present — to traffic on the major road. The sign is used where traffic on the crossing road cannot be seen. It may also stand before a railway crossing or a quarantine post, in which case the driver must stop at the stop line, or at the sign if there is none.

The sign is placed at the hydrant and applies within a radius of 3.5 metres of it; for an underground hydrant the cover counts as part of the zone. It may be used together with the red marking 1.28, in which case the marked line defines the zone — but the absence of marking 1.28 does not release the driver from the sign's requirement. It does not apply to fire engines.

Note: Where signs 3.29 and 3.30 are used together, vehicles are moved from one side of the road to the other between 19:00 and 21:00. During that period parking is allowed on both sides of the carriageway.
