Road signs in Uzbekistan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Road signs in Uzbekistan are regulated by the O'zDst 3283-2017 standard.[1] Due to the country being a former Soviet Socialist Republic, road signs are similar in design to those used in the Soviet Union before its dissolution in 1991, as well as in most other post-Soviet states. Uzbekistan acceded to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on January 17, 1995.[2][3]

Modern road signs in Uzbekistan are in many ways similar in design to road signs used in Russia and are based on the Soviet GOST 10807-78[4] standard and the Russian GOST R 52290-2004 standard.[5][6] The GOST 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.[7]

Inscriptions on road signs in Uzbekistan are written in the Uzbek language in Latin script only, despite the use of both Cyrillic and Latin alphabets in the country.
