A new version of the UK’s most popular traffic sign software is available and addresses sign illumination, as well as the tricky issue of bus lane signage.
SignPlot 3.4 is now ready to be downloaded by those with current support contracts, and the Sign Illumination Tool may be downloaded free of charge by anyone.
SignPlot covered the complete range of Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions (TSRGD 2016) signs before the regulation came into effect.
The new enhancements in SignPlot 3.4 focus on making bus lane and other signs quicker to design and helps answer the issue of which signs need lighting and where.
In a statement, makers Buchanan Computing said: 'Bus lane signs are now created simply by ticking the relevant options and entering enforcement hours in note form. This even works for offside bus lanes and bilingual signs in Wales and, as for all SignPlot dialogues, you see immediately the results of your selections and can recall the form later to make changes.
'Other enhancements include an easy way to add a junction name or other header to a sign, and improved depiction of ghost or hollow arms on signs showing how to avoid a banned turn.'
