What this sign means

That you are on your way to the places indicated and that these destinations are at the distances indicated by the sign.

This is an information/guidance sign — it helps you navigate rather than instructing you. When you see it, work out what it changes about your driving — your speed, your position on the road, or what you are allowed to do next — and act early rather than late.

Where you will usually find it

Information and guidance signs appear along routes — before exits, at facilities, and where the road layout changes. They do not order you to do anything; they help you plan: directions, distances, services and route numbers.
