Yield Ahead Sign – W041 | Permanent Ireland Traffic Sign
The Yield Ahead Sign – W041 | Permanent Ireland Traffic Sign provides advance warning that a yield (give way) junction is approaching. This sign alerts drivers to prepare for a reduction in speed and to be ready to give way to other road users at the upcoming junction or intersection.
The design consists of a hollow red downward-pointing triangle, symbolising the yield instruction, placed on a yellow diamond background. The combination delivers immediate, recognisable information to drivers and aligns fully with the specifications set out in Chapter 6 of the Traffic Signs Manual (TSM).
Commonly found on regional, local, and rural roads, this sign ensures motorists are notified of yield requirements before reaching the actual junction — particularly valuable in locations with limited visibility or higher-speed approaches.
Technical Review
The W041 Yield Ahead sign is designed in full compliance with EN12899-1 and TSM 2024 standards, ensuring clarity, durability, and high visibility. It plays a vital role in maintaining traffic flow and reducing potential collisions at priority junctions.
Its positioning should offer drivers sufficient distance to react, adjust speed, and approach the junction safely and under control, particularly where road geometry or environment obscures the upcoming yield line.
