DIVIDED ROAD. Older text version of the
sign. Now superceded by the symbolic version. Like many obsolete signs, it
is a disappearing sight. Wilson's Promontory, Vic. |
 |
Divided Road - Start. The current '
tuning fork' symbol for a divided road. The START plate is no longer a
standard sign, so even these are beginning to disappear gradually.
Stratford, Vic. |
 |
END DIVIDED ROAD. Now obsolete. This is
the text version of the sign. Now replaced by the symbolic version below.
Wilson's Promontory, Vic. |
 |
Divided Road - END. The current sign for
end of divided road. The END plate however, is no longer a standard sign. So
these too are beginning to disappear. |
 |
ONE LANE BRIDGE. Obsolete text sign. This
one was one of several along this road that had actually been repainted at
some time. Apparently the paint was colour matched to the already very faded
sign. The others were hand-lettered. This one at least used the original
lettering to repaint. Licola area. Vic. |
 |
Narrow bridge - ONE LANE. Current version
of the above sign. Licola area, Vic. |
 |
ROAD NARROWS. Another obsolete sign that
is gradually disappearing from the roadsides. Meerlieu, Vic. |

Road Narrows. Current diagram form of the
road narrows sign. Meerlieu, Vic. |

in Sale after driving past the sign for years. About 2 weeks later it was
replaced with the stylised pedestrian sign with AGED plate. |

Usually represented by a symbolic intersection sign. Digger's Rest, Vic. |
