Posted By Southerner You dont HAVE to put any signage anywhere. What makes you think you do?

Posted By Coshh Assessor The request was for information on how far apart should they be, not opinions on whether they might be needed - I assume someone who knows the site is able to assess whether they are needed. BS 5499: 2006 Part 10 is a code of practice for signs and may be useful, but doesn't give anything so simple as a recommended distance between them, instead it expands on the general idea that someone going in the direction of the hazard should be able to see a sign about it before they get there. It will depend on the layout, and on the size of the signs, so I think it's reasonable just to walk around thoughtfully and come to a decision that way.

Posted By peter gotch 1 Hi Susan There is guidance on the VSCG website, supplemented by e.g. the inland water safety guide publshed by RoSPA. More is coming out in the near/medium term 9you may see a picture of my border collie!). However, looking at you email address, doubt that much of this guidance will be of specific help, though the suggsions of primary warnings with smaller intermittent signage would appear appropriate to most of your sites - defining the dstances would rquire site specific inspection.
