Warning signs
Steep hill upwards ahead (20%)
What it means
A steep climb ahead, and 20% means it rises one metre for every five you travel forward. Expect lorries, cyclists and older cars crawling up it. Change down early so you do not stall, keep a good gap from anything that might roll back, and give slow vehicles room rather than squeezing past.
