Art. 59 Ordinance of September 5, 1979, on Road Signage (OSR) - Arrangement of Traffic Lanes, Opening of the Emergency Lane

The signal "Arrangement of Traffic Lanes" (4.77) indicates the layout, the number of lanes, and, where applicable, the decrease or increase in this number. The arrows show the traffic lanes and are black in color; the background of the sign is white. When the signage is temporary, the symbol of signal 4.77 can be reproduced on a foldable triangular sign of white color.

The signal "Opening of the Emergency Lane" (4.77.2) indicates that it is permitted to use the emergency lane.

When a regulation or a warning of danger is valid only for certain lanes, the relevant signal will be displayed in the middle of the arrow representing the lane in question ("Arrangement of Traffic Lanes Indicating Restrictions"; 4.77.1).

Art. 89, para. 2, applies to the placement of the "Arrangement of Traffic Lanes" signal on highways and semi-highways.
