Speed Limit Signs

Speed limit signs are an essential part of road safety. They come in a range of sizes to suit the speed of the road, as well as the space constraints of where they are being positioned. Some speed limit signs just display the speed limit in a roundel, whereas others display a message indicating why the speed limit is set as it is. When buying a speed limit sign, choose a supplier that can provide CE-marked signs to guarantee their compliance and quality (that's us, by the way!) We also offer next-day delivery on in-stock items.

About Speed Limit Signs

Every UK road has a speed limit, based on the road’s layout and its surroundings. Speed limit signs show the maximum speed at which vehicles are allowed to travel, as a black number inside a white circle with a red border.

These safety signs are essential as speed limits constantly change throughout any journey. Pole- or wall-mounted road signs are required by law to inform road users of this limit. Temporary signage is also used, for instance at roadworks where drivers need to slow down.

What speed limits are used where?

5mph and 10mph for the slowest areas (like schools or car parks). Often used in conjunction with speed bumps.
15mph for off-highway areas such as construction sites or private drives.
20-30mph for public areas such as streets and city roads.
40mph for rural/ suburban areas.
50mph or 60mph (or National Speed Limit signs) for areas designed exclusively for motor vehicles, such as carriageways.

For more information about speed sign regulations, see the TSRGD Guidelines (Chapter 3, page 105 onwards) on our regulations page.

Speed limit signs for sale

Our speed limit signs come in 3 main sizes; 300mm, 450mm, and 600mm. Larger signs usually signify a change in the speed limit, while smaller "repeater" signs are used as reminders. Our wall-mounted signs also come in 3 sizes.

Post-mounted signs have 2 rails on the back where usually a rigid D-clamp, back-to-back clamp, or universal clamp can be secured.

Temporary speed limit sign faces are designed to attach easily to metal or plastic frames.

Key features of our speed limit signs

High-grade reflectivity: Our signs are made from "high-intensity prismatic" material. This gives R2 reflectivity, which means 32% of the light from the driver’s headlights is reflected back.

High-quality construction: Made from a composite substrate of road-grade aluminium and plastic - no rust, no scrap value, and an impressive lifespan.

High-end product: Fully up-to-spec and CE-marked. You can be confident they will withstand the elements for years to come.
