Shipping sign BPR H.2.3
Indication of diversions
The designation for temporary detour routes consists of a decision indication, ie an orange sign with black text. It is recommended that this sign is only used if it makes sense for recreational boating. With regard to the font height to be used and the required legibility distance, reference is made to the table below.
The waterways are divided into 4 waterway groups according to water level width as an aid to choosing the correct sign size. The signs must be placed parallel to the axis of the waterway. The mileage runs from source to sea or from high to low canal building.
| Water surface width (m) | Font height Capitals | Font height Lower case |
| < 20 | 16 | 12 |
| 20 - 60 | 28 | 21 |
| 60 - 170 | 40 | 30 |
| > 170 | 56 | 42 |
