Which sign indicates road works?

• A. Temporary hazard at road works
• B. Bus lane on road at junction ahead
• C. Road works
• D. No through road for vehicles

Answer: (C)

Road works signs are warning signs that tell you there’s construction or maintenance taking place on or near the road, so you should slow down and be prepared for changes in traffic flow, workers, and possibly temporary traffic controls. The sign that literally reads “Road works” and shows workers is the clear, explicit indicator that road works are ahead. Its triangular shape with a red border signals a warning, prompting you to reduce speed and proceed with caution.

The other signs don’t indicate road works. A sign labeled as a temporary hazard at road works would point to a specific temporary danger rather than the overall presence of works. A bus lane sign warns about a lane reserved for buses at a junction, not about works. A no through road sign indicates a dead end, not any works activity.
