Shipping signs

Signs of shipping for the designation of the waterway, the driving channel and the dangerous places and obstacles are not continuously set on the Moselle.

Floating shipping signs shall be anchored at about 5,00 m outside the limits specified by them.

Burones and parallel works can be designated by floating or fixed shipping signs. These are generally applied in front of or on the poppy heads and parallel works.

A sufficient distance must be kept from the characters, otherwise there is a risk of raking or running up.
