Road signs in Croatia
Road signs in Croatia / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Road signs in Croatia are regulated in Pravilnik o prometnim znakovima signalizaciji i opremi na cestama.[1] The shape and design of the road signs largely follow the road signs used in most European countries, including European Union countries (France, Germany, Italy etc.), to which Croatia joined in 2013. A similar design of road signs is used in the neighboring countries of the former Yugoslavia like Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and also North Macedonia (the latter two are not members of the EU).
The former Yugoslavia had originally signed the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on November 8, 1968 and ratified it on June 6, 1977.[2] Yugoslavia formerly used a yellow background on warning signs. After the breakup of Yugoslavia when Croatia declared its independence in 1991, the country succeeded to the Vienna Convention on November 2, 1993.
Croatian signs use the SNV typeface.
