Tourist Slip Road
Signs for tourist destinations

Tourist Slip Road

Tourist destinations are shown on signs with brown backgrounds. On the main carriageway of a motorway, these are separate from the main direction signs and are usually sited ¾ mile and ¼ mile from the junction (although they do not show the distance to the junction). On exit slip roads and where the motorway ends at a roundabout, the main direction signs may show tourist destinations on a brown panel, in the same way that they show other destinations on green and white panels. However, separate brown signs are likely to be used at these locations to avoid putting too much information on a single sign.
