Does a prohibition sign placed together with a town or city name sign apply throughout the whole town or city?
Signage: Vertical signs
Explanation
Prohibition signs at the entrance to a built-up area
**Regulatory signs** (prohibition, obligation, restriction) placed **next to the sign with the name of a built-up area** indicate that **that rule applies throughout the entire urban area**.
This regulation remains in force **on all streets and roads within the built-up area**, **except** on those stretches where **other signs** appear indicating a **different rule** (for example, another speed limit, end of prohibition, etc.).
In summary:
- Regulatory sign + entry sign to a built-up area → **rule valid throughout the entire built-up area**.
- If another different sign appears further on → **the new sign applies on that stretch**.
