Work zone signage

Reykjavík City and the Road Administration require work zone signage to ensure worker safety, protect vulnerable road users with accessible pedestrian and bike routes, minimize traffic delays and maximize construction speed.

Standard drawings for various work zones are available in the guidelines from Reykjavík City and the Road Administration. A special drawing is required for situations involving more disruption to access and complex detours.

Work zone signage designers and those responsible for work zone signage must pass an exam from the Road Administration and Reykjavík City. Engineering firms or others with proper qualifications can also design and oversee work zone signage.

Permit holders must obtain signs and markers themselves. Those who don't own signs and markers can rent them from the City Land District Depot at Stórhöfði.
