Motorway signs
Motorway junction, displaying route number and destination reached as well as destination reached by remaining on the motorway
What it means
Two answers on one sign. The angled arm shows where the slip road takes you, the straight arms show what you reach by staying on the motorway. Read it while it is still ahead of you, not as you draw level, then commit to your lane instead of cutting across late.
Highway Code Rule 273 — read it on GOV.UK
