Tourist signs on motorways and trunk roads such as the A1, A1(M) are the responsibility of the Highway Agency. We are responsible for tourist signs on all A, B and C class roads and most unclassified roads.
For a new tourist sign, the applicant should check that their tourist destination satisfied the following criteria:
- Tourist destination
- Attraction quality
- Location of attraction
The application fee is a non-refundable upfront payment for the assessment of the site. If approved, the sign/s are provided at your own expense, including the cost of design, installation, and a commuted sum for the future maintenance and repair of the sign.
Please see the application form for specific details and costs.
