of
Function of Traffic Engineering
1. Fact finding survey and recommendation of traffic rules
and regulations.

2.Supervising and maintenance to the application

of traffic control devices.

3. Planning of traffic regulations.

 Types of traffic control devices:
• Traffic Road Sign
A sign usually made of a metal plate in a conspicuous
location beside a road whereby a message is conveyed by
means of words or symbols officially installed for the purpose of
regulating, warning, or guiding traffic.
CLASSIFICATION OF TRAFFIC SIGN
a. DANGER WARNING SIGNS – It is also
known as “caution signs”. These signs are
intended to give caution for approaching
road hazards.

one shape horizontal.
with

also
OR NOT TO PERFORM a specified act.

areas located

roadway.
 Classifications of Traffic Island

 DIVISION ISLAND - These are constructed primarily to

divide the streams of the motor vehicles.
 CHANNELIZING ISLAND - These are constructed to
channelize
or direct the flow of traffic.
 ROTARY ISLAND – creates a circular flow in one direction which
is found in intersection that has a circular central island.
