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.
Points in favour of Chapter 8 chevron kits in Putney
- Delivery, recovery and refuse vehicles that stop briefly on busy Putney streets can carry rear chevrons too, where their contracts ask for them.
- Dark winter afternoons in Putney are when retroreflective chevrons earn their keep, catching headlights while crews work at the roadside.
- If you're tendering for maintenance work with councils or utilities across Greater London, check whether contracts covering Putney specify rear chevrons, and to what standard.
What Chapter 8 chevron kits cost in Putney

Chapter 8 chevron kits in Putney: 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.
