Event Ahead TM9-1A (600x600mm) corflute TM Series event advance warning panel with black EVENT AHEAD legend on Class 400T retroreflective yellow sheeting, used on the approach to community, sporting and public events.

Description

Event Ahead TM9-1A (600x600mm) corflute sign panel displays an EVENT AHEAD advance warning message on a yellow retroreflective background. It is used in event traffic management setups to give road users advance warning that a community, sporting or public event is affecting the road ahead.

The signface layout, legend and colours follow the applicable AS 1743:2023 signface design for the TM9-1A code. This standard-listed TM Series event advance warning panel is supplied as a modular corflute panel for use with compatible temporary roadwork sign frame systems. It sits alongside the Event In Progress TM9-3A and End Event TM9-2A panels in the event sign family, providing the advance warning position in a typical event signing sequence.

This panel is manufactured on 6mm UV stabilised corflute using Class 400T retroreflective yellow sheeting with opaque black printing. The black uppercase EVENT AHEAD legend, black border and yellow retroreflective background support clear event advance warning where this panel is specified.

This 600x600mm corflute sign panel is designed for use with compatible Multi-Message Sign Frame No. 1 arrangements where the frame configuration accepts 600x600mm corflute panels and the overall sign arrangement is suitable. It may also be used with other suitable temporary roadwork sign frame systems that accept 600x600mm corflute panels.

In practical use, this panel may be used for fun runs, cycling events, street festivals, markets, parades, sporting fixtures, community events and other special events where road closures, changed traffic conditions, parking restrictions or increased pedestrian activity are expected on the approach. Where an event is on a side road, an On Side Road arrow panel or a Horizontal Arrow (TM5-8B) panel, commonly called a long directional arrow, may be displayed with the event advance warning panel to indicate the direction of the side road where specified.

Where specified for the site arrangement, related panels may include Event In Progress, End Event, Road Closed Ahead, Detour Ahead, Changed Traffic Conditions, Reduce Speed, speed limit panels or suitable supplementary context panels.

This panel provides event advance warning information only. It does not create, authorise or legally enforce a road closure, speed reduction, parking restriction, detour or traffic control arrangement by itself. Selection, placement, panel pairing, frame arrangement and use remain subject to the applicable TMP, TGS, event traffic management plan, site conditions and relevant authority requirements.

Event Ahead TM9-1A FAQs

What is the Event Ahead TM9-1A panel used for?

This panel gives road users advance warning that a community, sporting or public event is affecting the road ahead, where this warning is specified as part of an event traffic management arrangement.

Is TM9-1A a national sign code?

Yes. TM9-1A is the 600x600mm Event Ahead panel in the TM9 event series of multi-message sign panels listed in AS 1742.3. The signface layout, legend and colours follow the applicable AS 1743:2023 signface design for TM9-1A.

What colour is this panel?

This panel is supplied as a black legend and border on Class 400T retroreflective yellow sheeting, matching the Event In Progress and End Event panels. Some road authorities or event traffic management plans specify fluorescent yellow-green sheeting for event signage. Check the colour and reflective sheeting requirements of the applicable plan before ordering, and contact UAGS if a fluorescent yellow-green version is required.

How does this panel fit with Event In Progress and End Event?

In a typical event signing sequence, Event Ahead is displayed on the approach, Event In Progress is displayed at or through the event area, and End Event is displayed at the departure end. The actual sequence and placement must match the applicable TMP, TGS or event traffic management plan.

Is this a regulatory sign?

No. This product should not be described as a regulatory sign. It carries an advance warning message only and does not close a road, set a speed limit or restrict parking by itself.

Can this panel be used to show an event on a side road?

Where specified, an On Side Road arrow panel or a Horizontal Arrow (TM5-8B) panel, commonly called a long directional arrow, may be displayed with an event advance warning panel to indicate the direction of the side road where the event is being held. Panel combinations should be confirmed by a competent person under the applicable TMP or TGS.

What reflective sheeting is used?

This panel uses Class 400T retroreflective yellow sheeting with opaque black printing. Reflective wording relates to the supplied signface material only. Selection and use remain subject to the applicable TMP, TGS, site conditions and project requirements.

Which frames is this 600x600mm panel compatible with?

This 600x600mm corflute panel is designed for use with compatible Multi-Message Sign Frame No. 1 arrangements where the frame configuration accepts 600x600mm corflute panels and the overall sign arrangement is suitable. It may also be used with other suitable temporary roadwork sign frame systems that accept 600x600mm corflute panels.

Does this panel create a compliant event traffic management arrangement by itself?

No. This panel does not create site compliance, TMP validity, TGS validity, authority approval or an approved event traffic management arrangement by itself. It is one component within a broader temporary traffic management arrangement.
