The Start of Motorway sign, Sign F 330, indicates the commencement point of a motorway and should be positioned on the mainline and on the merge slip roads on both sides of the carriageway. However, the sign must be positioned where it can readily be seen by drivers in time to decide whether or not to proceed onto the motorway. Thus, the sign should be positioned at the start of a merge slip road, even if the motorway order does not start precisely at that point.
