British traffic signs changes, Safety Signs News

Tuesday, October 18th, 2011

Safety signs across the uk’s roads are to be exhamined in their most substantial review over the last 40 years.

Minister of Transport, Mr Norman Baker has posted this move, which he hopes will dramatically lessen the number of sign erections needed by local councils.

Signs will also be introduced to inform vehicle users of parking places that have a charging point for electric vehicles.

Commenting on the plans, Mr Baker said: “Sometimes the jungles of signs and tangles of white, red and yellow lines can leave people more confused than informed. This expensive clutter can also leave our roadsides looking unsightly.”

Mr Baker added that he desires consistency across the country in regards to sign rules, while enabling local authorities more freedom in how they introduce the installations.

Earlier this month, a new road sign was brought to Crieff, after it was designed by a local school student.

It will be used to welcome motorists into the town. ADNFCR-2754-ID-800760171-ADNFCR

Christmas is fast approaching and the main thing of peoples mind is making the post of the christmas sprending spree. Cestrian Signs ltd have always been a very fast fast and efficient supplier not only for the basics eg fire exit signs, safty signs, traffic signs etc but also for banners. Previously banners have had vinyl letters applied which tended to fall off after a while and look very tatty, we print directly onto our banner with 4 year outdoor proof inks. Our banner is top quality 550mg and can withstand all weathers, we also use marine standard eyelets which won’t rust and caused staining on the banner.

Chester Zoo have just recently asked us to produce some large banners at their front entrance which is advertising their Christmas Festivities this year, as usually these banners are very striking and really pull in the customers. Pubs and restaurants also enjoy great curb appeal from our very reasonably priced banners, having clever wording means they can be used time and time again year after year.
As we can make the banners to any size and in any colour including full colour photographs or images the impact can be fabulous. If you want to have something temporary which has a great impact try one of our banners and we can make a bespoke banner especially for you, our prices are very reasonable and service and quality good.
We can also help with design and content without charging you advertising agency fees, charging only thirty eight pounds per hour.

Health and Safety signs coshh

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

Health and safety signs are at best a very plain but essential part of our daily life. We pride ourselves on not only producing functional signs but also well designed signs. It really doesn’t matter whether it is an exit sign, warning signs or traffic signs the design should be easy to read and ‘nice’ to look at. Recently we have been asked to produce new COSHH signs which include full colour photos, these help break the monotany of Health and Safety signs with out distracting from the message needed to be given.

Traffic signs and stations are also very popular at the moment, with the nights drawing in and visability reducing with the dark winter days these are a good warning sign to passing motorists and pedestrians. Available in two types or reflectivity these safety signs are great and comply with highways standards. New exit signs have just been erected by one of our customers in Chester whi has high volumes of traffic from the highways, these signs also included their logo, telephone and webb address, we print all thin sign information onto clear vinyl and mount onto the highly reflective warning signs. Therefore the customer keeps the health and safety signs as per regulations but also advertises their business to the fullest degree.

Traffic signs need not just be functional they can also be a good advertising tool, and an asset to any business as improves the professional look of the business as soon as the customer turns off the highway.
