For the purpose of section 2(1) of the Act —

a pedestrian‑only path sign consists of the symbols set out in diagram 1 or 2 of the Schedule;

an end‑of pedestrian‑only path sign consists of the symbols and words set out in diagram 3, 4 or 5 of the Schedule;

a pedestrian-only path marking consists of the symbols set out in diagram 5A, 5AA or 5AB of the Schedule;

an end-of pedestrian-only path marking consists of the symbol or words set out in diagram 5B, 5C or 5D of the Schedule;

a shared path sign consists of the symbols and words set out in diagram 6, 7 or 7A of the Schedule;

an end‑of shared path sign consists of the words set out in diagram 8 of the Schedule;

a shared path marking consists of the symbols or words or symbols and words set out in diagram 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 or 16 of the Schedule; and

an end‑of shared path marking consists of the symbols set out in diagram 17, 18 or 19 of the Schedule.

A sign or marking as given in a diagram in the Schedule must at least be of the size, and conform to the colour and type, as shown in the diagram set out in the Schedule.

The dimension of a sign or marking as given in a diagram in the Schedule denotes the dimension in millimetres unless otherwise stated.

The direction of any arrow or other indication on a sign or marking shown in the diagrams in the Schedule may be reversed or otherwise varied as circumstances may require.

The fact that a sign or marking differs in size, colour, form or font from that shown in the relevant diagram in the Schedule does not prevent the sign or marking from being a pedestrian‑only path sign, an end‑of pedestrian‑only path sign, a shared path sign, an end‑of shared path sign, a shared path marking or an end‑of shared path marking, as the case may be, so long as the difference —

is slight; (b)is not calculated to mislead; and

does not affect the substance of the message in the sign or marking.
