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.
Why choose Chapter 8 chevron kits for a business in Holyhead?
- Main contractors in Holyhead may ask subcontractors to show their vehicle markings at site induction, so a properly cut kit helps avoid delays on the first day.
- A depot in Holyhead 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 Holyhead face the same passing traffic as road crews, and their clients may ask for the same markings.
What Chapter 8 chevron kits cost in Holyhead
The figures in this table are guide prices, from £325 to £895 per vehicle, and they exclude VAT. They are there to help you plan. A firm price follows the survey or artwork check and is agreed before any work starts.

|---|---|---|
| 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 Holyhead: 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.
