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.
What Chapter 8 chevron kits can do for businesses in Shepherds Bush
- Vans that stop at kerbsides in Shepherds Bush to repair, survey or unload are easier for approaching drivers to pick out with high-visibility rear chevrons.
- A depot in Shepherds Bush with several works vans can have kits fitted in one visit, rather than sending vehicles away one at a time.
- Grounds maintenance and tree crews stopping on verges around Shepherds Bush face the same passing traffic as road crews, and their clients may ask for the same markings.
What Chapter 8 chevron kits cost in Shepherds Bush
Budgeting for Chapter 8 chevron kits? The guide below runs from £325 to £895 per vehicle. VAT is extra. Size, materials and access decide where your job lands, and we confirm it in writing after surveying or checking the artwork.

|---|---|---|
| Car-derived or small van | £325 – £495 | £390 – £594 |
| Medium or large van | £395 – £695 | £474 – £834 |

Price depends on the area to be covered, how many cut-outs are needed around handles, lights and cameras, the grade of retroreflective film your contract specifies, whether old markings must come off, and how many vehicles are done in one visit. All figures are guides excluding VAT, confirmed when we have photos and your contract spec.

Chapter 8 chevron kits in Shepherds Bush: 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.
