Traffic sign C43: Speed limit

The C43 sign forbids driving faster than the speed shown, from the sign up to and including the next junction or the next C43 sign. At roadworks it lowers the speed along the works zone, usually to 30 or 50 km/h.

Prohibitory signs are round with a red border. They forbid something: a direction, access, overtaking, driving faster than a set speed. At roadworks they close a street or a footpath, or limit the speed along the site.

Anyone who puts up a traffic sign on the public road for works needs the consent of the road authority: through the occupation permit or through a signage permit with a signage plan. Without that consent you may not put up the sign.
