What are the Australian standards for safety signs in car parks?

The Australian standards for safety signs in car parks are outlined in AS 1319-1994, which provides guidelines for designing and implementing effective safety signs. These signs are crucial for maintaining order, directing traffic flow, and preventing accidents. Key elements include clear visibility, appropriate size, and correct colours. Mandatory signs, such as stop and give way, utilise a blue background with white text or symbols. Warning signs, like pedestrian crossings, feature a yellow background with black icons. Furthermore, regulatory signs, such as speed limits, employ a red or black circular border. Adhering to these standards ensures a safe and efficient car park environment for drivers and pedestrians alike.
