Route Signs

The National Byway® routes are well signposted throughout. All signs show The National Byway® logo and the National Highways bicycle symbol. The National Byway® only signs have a brown ground, whilst shared routes have a conventional blue ground. Look out for the signs that indicate a Loop.

Below are examples of the types of sign you will encounter travelling along The National Byway® routes and loops.

Directional and confirmation signs mark the route:

Loop Directional signs mark the way when it varies from the main route.

Where The National Byway® route is shared with the National Cycle Network, joint signs are used.

PLEASE NOTE: In the event that there is no sign at a junction, the route goes straight on.
