You’ve probably seen bold “KEEP CLEAR” markings painted outside entrances, exits, or busy access points. But many site owners ask: “Do we really need Keep Clear markings, and what difference do they make?”
At C&R Ltd, we install Keep Clear markings across car parks, private roads, warehouses, schools, and commercial estates throughout the UK. Here’s why they’re essential for safety, compliance, and efficiency.
What Are Keep Clear Markings?
Keep Clear markings are painted messages on the ground that warn drivers not to park or stop in certain areas. They’re usually paired with boundary boxes or hatched zones, making them highly visible.
Common uses include:
- Outside building entrances and exits.
- Around loading bays or delivery zones.
- Near schools or pedestrian crossings.
- At emergency access points for fire and ambulance services.
Why They’re So Important
Ensuring Access
Without clear markings, vehicles often block entrances, exits, or delivery points. This causes disruption, delays, and in some cases serious safety risks.
Supporting Emergency Response
Emergency services need fast, unobstructed access to buildings. Keep Clear markings make it clear to drivers where they cannot stop, reducing the chance of a blocked access route.
Improving Traffic Flow
In busy car parks or estates, bottlenecks happen when vehicles stop in the wrong place. Keep Clear markings help maintain smooth, safe traffic movement.
Compliance and Professionalism
For many businesses, clear access is not only best practice but part of health and safety obligations. Professionally applied markings also project a responsible, well-managed image.
