Temporary Pedestrian Crossing Sign – WK 082 | Temporary Ireland Traffic Sign

Temporary Pedestrian Crossing Sign – WK 082 | Temporary Ireland Traffic Sign

The WK 082 – Temporary Pedestrian Crossing Sign is a high-visibility warning sign used to indicate the presence of a temporary pedestrian crossing point—especially in locations where pedestrians would not typically be expected. It plays a vital role in ensuring safety for both drivers and footpath users in areas affected by roadworks, diversions, or public events.

This sign is used where a temporary crossing has been installed—for example, where a detour redirects foot traffic across a road or junction. Its bright orange background and clear pedestrian icon alert motorists in advance, encouraging caution and reducing risk in unfamiliar or dynamic traffic layouts.

Under Chapter 8 of the Irish Traffic Signs Manual, the WK 082 sign ensures full compliance for any temporary works affecting pedestrian routes. It may be used alone or with other signs and supplementary plates such as P 001 (distance to crossing) to provide even clearer advance notice.
