How to recognise it

An orange diamond showing a black figure looking through a survey instrument on a tripod.

Where you will see it

Before a stretch of road where a survey crew is working, often ahead of planned construction.

What to do when you see it

  1. 1.Slow down and watch for survey workers on or beside the road.
  2. 2.Give the crew and their equipment plenty of room, and be prepared to stop.

On the knowledge test

Orange diamonds belong to construction areas. Recognise the tripod: it is a survey crew, not a flag person, so no one is there to direct you.
