Chapter 8 chevrons are rear markings of alternating red and fluorescent yellow retroreflective material, with the chevrons pointing upwards, fitted to vehicles that stop or work on the highway under the Traffic Signs Manual's Chapter 8 guidance.
The case for Chapter 8 chevron kits in Coleraine
- Delivery, recovery and refuse vehicles that stop briefly on busy Coleraine streets can carry rear chevrons too, where their contracts ask for them.
- Dark winter afternoons in Coleraine are when retroreflective chevrons earn their keep, catching headlights while crews work at the roadside.
- A depot in Coleraine with several works vans can have kits fitted in one visit, rather than sending vehicles away one at a time.

Chapter 8 chevron kits in Coleraine: permission and rules
Rear chevrons aren't usually an advertisement matter, so council consent doesn't come into it. What matters instead is Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual, the guidance for vehicles that stop or work on the highway, together with the specification in your contract. Highway authorities, utilities and main contractors often add their own requirements, so send us the exact wording before we cut anything. Markings are kept off windows and away from lights, reflectors and the number plate, which must stay clearly visible. Chevrons don't change a vehicle's main colour, so the V5C isn't affected. Whether you work in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, treat your contract's spec as the standard and confirm it with your client.
