You now go off the M8 near Coatbridge and bypass Glasgow, coming back on to the M77 via the M73 south of the Clyde, so no going over thenkingston bridge anymore. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255750 Sun, 23 Jul 2017 22:09:52 +0000 wingpig 255750@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It's maybe a special new sign for festival-time to reduce the number of people trying to squidge through the city centre. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255749 Sun, 23 Jul 2017 22:05:41 +0000 gembo 255749@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The bypass is for going to the zoo? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255748 Sun, 23 Jul 2017 21:55:29 +0000 wingpig 255748@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I saw one today - it's on the A1 approaching Edinburgh, where it informs readers that For Edinburgh Zoo Take The Bypass as That's What It's For - has the wee thistle symbol on it so I initially thought it was a brown sign which had faded to grey. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255733 Sun, 23 Jul 2017 17:15:36 +0000 jonty 255733@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Eep. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255720 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 22:14:08 +0000 gembo 255720@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@jonty, specifically motorway slip roads where humans have followed satnav without question and gone down an up slip road off the motorway </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255711 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 18:38:21 +0000 jonty 255711@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>All of them if you're going the wrong way? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255704 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 17:01:03 +0000 gembo 255704@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Frenchy you are warm as toast </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255701 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 15:49:05 +0000 Frenchy 255701@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>these signs are upright, perpendicular to the road, metallic</em></p> <p>Are they facing the correct way?</p> <p><em>Final clue, involves following SatNav to the letter</em></p> <p>Or is the car facing the correct way? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255700 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 15:44:37 +0000 gembo 255700@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Final clue, involves following SatNav to the letter </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255698 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 15:37:12 +0000 stiltskin 255698@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Any sign up against a dark sky?<br /> I have to admit I cheated &amp; checked the HC.

The circular sign is on a grey background.</p> <p>Of course, there are other kinds where the sign iself is greyed out, but they have a white background.</p> <p>Do red signs with white writing, so beloved of road works contractors, look grey to people with red-green colourblindness? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255684 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 14:05:01 +0000 gembo 255684@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@iwrats, like your thinking but these signs are upright, perpendicular to the road, metallic </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255677 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 13:24:13 +0000 I were right about that saddle 255677@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I suppose the ones painted on the road surface sometimes have a grey background. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17955#post-255674 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 12:26:00 +0000 gembo 255674@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Mrs G (Garto remember never Gembo) was recently set this question - What road signs have a grey background?
