Traffic Signs

What does the S-47 road sign mean?

Question image: What does the S-47 road sign mean?
  • A Pedestrian underpass with rail or ramp for cycles
  • B Advance sign for a no-through road
  • Shared-space zone (coexistence zone)
  • D No-through road except for pedestrians or cycles

Why this is the correct answer

Indicates a traffic area intended primarily for pedestrians where the following special rules apply: the maximum speed for vehicles is 20 km/h; the space is shared between vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians; pedestrians have priority, may use the whole traffic area and therefore pedestrian crossings are not marked; cycles and, where appropriate, personal mobility vehicles may travel in both directions unless the competent authority decides otherwise; vehicles may only be parked in spaces marked by signs or road markings; games and sports are not permitted.
