Road signs in Switzerland

Road signs in Switzerland conform to the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals.

Design

Distances and other measurements are displayed in metric units. The font used is the Frutiger, since 2003.

Although Switzerland is not a member of the European Union, signs follow the general European conventions concerning the use of shape and color to indicate their function.

Language

Each canton for its road signs and complementary indications uses one of the four official languages of Switzerland accordingly.
