Road signs in Uzbekistan
Road signs in Uzbekistan are similar to the road sign system of other post-Soviet states that ensure that transport vehicles move safely and orderly, as well as to inform the participants of traffic built-in graphic icons. They are regulated in O'zDst 3283-2017.[1] Uzbekistan is a signatory to the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic and Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals.[2]
Road signs are in many ways similar to road signs used in Russia and are based on the Soviet ГОСТ 10807-78[3] standard (no longer valid in Russia since January 1, 2006) and the Russian ГОСТ Р 52290-2004 standard.[4][5] The ГОСТ 10807-78 standard is still valid in Uzbekistan, but with additions. However, modern road signs in Uzbekistan also have some design features used on road signs in European countries such as Spain, Germany and Italy.[6] Inscriptions on road signs in Uzbekistan are written in Latin script only, despite the use of Cyrillic and Latin alphabets in the country.
