Road signs in Şabat

Road signs in Turkmenistan are similar to the road sign system of other post-Soviet states (e.g. Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan) that ensure that transport vehicles move safely and orderly, as well as to inform the participants of traffic built-in graphic icons. They generally conform to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals. Turkmenistan acceded to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on June 14, 1993.

Road signs in Turkmenistan are based on the ГОСТ 10807-78 and ГОСТ 23457-86 Soviet standards (both of them are no longer valid in Russia) and are defined in Ýol hereketi we howpsuzlygy but with inscriptions in Turkmen language and in Latin script only. However, there are road signs in Turkmenistan that are similar in design to Turkish ones and the FHWA or Arial typeface is used. Road signs in Turkmenistan are a mix of post-Soviet and Turkish road sign systems.

Road signs are divided into 7 categories:

# Category name Category name (in Turkmen)
1 Warning signs Duýduryjy belgiler
2 Priority signs Artykmaçlyk beriji belgiler
3 Prohibitory signs Gadagan ediji belgiler
4 Mandatory signs Buýrujy belgiler
5 Information signs Habardar ediji – görkeziji belgiler
6 Service signs Hyzmat belgileri
7 Additional panels Goşmaça maglumat belgileri (tabliçkalar)
