3M

3M has announced the return of its Lunchtime Learning Series of free webinars about traffic signage, following a successful first year in 2017.

The science-based technology company’s technical experts will once again share valuable industry knowledge and advice through four quarterly webinars in 2018.

The interactive webinars will be aimed at everyone involved in sign specification in the UK and Ireland, from design engineers and traffic consultants to road safety managers. Each webinar will be broadcast live online, allowing participants to ask questions in real time.

The first webinar, titled ‘Sign Clutter – What You Need to Know’, will run from 12.00 noon to 13.00 on 21 February. Details of further webinars will be released nearer the time.

In the first webinar, 3M technical specialist Andy Fish will discuss what makes an effective traffic sign, what sign clutter is, how to avoid it, and real-life scenarios.

Andy said: “We launched the Lunchtime Learning Series last year and received overwhelmingly positive feedback, so we’re delighted to be bringing it back again.

“These webinars provide an excellent opportunity to learn more about important topics relating to the specification of clear and effective traffic signs. This is essential for the efficient operation of the road network, the enforcement of traffic regulations and for road safety.

“Sign clutter is a great topic to kick off the series with. I encourage everyone involved in sign specification to register online and share the information with colleagues.”
