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 Bentley
- Main contractors in Bentley may ask subcontractors to show their vehicle markings at site induction, so a properly cut kit helps avoid delays on the first day.
- Delivery, recovery and refuse vehicles that stop briefly on busy Bentley streets can carry rear chevrons too, where their contracts ask for them.
- If you're tendering for maintenance work with councils or utilities across South Yorkshire, check whether contracts covering Bentley specify rear chevrons, and to what standard.
What Chapter 8 chevron kits cost in Bentley
Below is the guide pricing we use for Chapter 8 chevron kits: from £325 up to £895 per vehicle, before VAT. These are not fixed quotes. A written price follows once measurements are taken and your artwork has been checked.

|---|---|---|
| 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 Bentley: 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.
