Explanation
Entry into a built-up area and rules that start to apply
---------------------------------------------------------
The **S-500 Entry into a built-up area** sign indicates:
- The **name of the town/locality** being entered.
- The **exact point** from which the **traffic rules for built-up areas apply**.
From this sign onwards:
- **Driving must be adapted** due to the possible presence of **pedestrians, cyclists or other vulnerable road users**.
- The **upper supplementary panel** serves to **reinforce** this message of attention and caution.
- The **maximum permitted speed** on that road **from that point onwards** may also appear, even though **different speed limits** may exist on other streets within the same built-up area.
