South Africa

First approach sign is a fork sign showing all destinations of the exit and the exit number. This sign is usually repeated once before the ID sign. Sometimes additional signs are placed in between with some extra destinations that can be used through the exit, mostly touristy or services. The sign is blue, which is the colour used for motorways in South Africa. Pull-through information is limited to the road number ahead. The reassurance signs placed after each exits give more information for the road ahead. If a road is tolled, a yellow circle with a T in it stands next to the road number.

An interesting feature of the South African type of signage (which has been copied throughout Southern Africa) are the gantry signs with huge arrows showing the situation of the upcoming intersection.
