Detour

Detour road sign

What It Means

An orange rectangle with a black arrow and the word DETOUR, directing traffic around a closed section of road.

How Rare Is It on Road Sign Hunt?

Common. You'll spot these on almost any drive.

Spotting Tip

Look for these anywhere there's active construction or a closed road — they're usually posted in a series, each one confirming the turn to make next.

Fun Fact

Detour signs are required to use the same bright orange as construction warning signs specifically so drivers instantly recognize them as temporary, even from a distance, before they can read the text.
