Text of the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016 as in force today (including any amendments) within the United Kingdom, from legislation.gov.uk.

The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions (commonly abbreviated to TSRGD) is the law that sets out the design and conditions of use of official traffic signs that can be lawfully placed on or near roads in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) and the Isle of Man. The regulations came into effect in 1965, and were the result of the review of British road signage carried out by the Worboys Committee.
