Just seen some new signs on the M25, I saw them between j11 - j10 anti clock. Blue and white

M25
B
75.8

M25
B

They are counting down, in .5's (tho there was a .4 gap)

New kilometre markings? they are very visible and quite large.

They have been there for a while now.can only assume they are Kilometre markings.

They're the new alternative to the marker posts.

Isn't there some secret plan to prepare the ground for a conversion to kilometre signs?

On the M20 they have had Kilometre signs painted on the road for a while much before the M25 one`s were put in.

I have also seen these, they seem to start at Dartford crossing, and are marked A or B depending which way round you are travelling and they are definately in km. So the days of miles are numbered!!

Yep, I've noticed these too - but the lettering is yellow, not white.

They don't replace the small posts marking distance to the nearest emergency phone.

I did hear somebody say that they are to allow the emergency services to pinpoint the site of an accident.

Yellow?

So traffic lights dont go Red white green then?

Yep, they've been on the M6 for about a year now. I asked the question as to their purpose here many months ago and no one knew.
