Sack cloth and ashes time...
My last post not strictly correct
Chapter 5 D of T Road Marking states
.ROAD STUDS
5.11 Regulation 31(3) requires double white line systems to be fitted with road studs. Except in the circumstances detailed in para 5.12, a single row of bi-directional reflecting road studs is placed between the lines at centres between 3 m and 4.5 m. Other than at level crossings, where a spacing of 4 m should be used (see para 19.16), it is recommended that a 4.5 m spacing is adopted on all new installations. Provided they are within the above range of dimensions, it is not necessary to change existing installations to 4.5 m spacing merely to comply with this paragraph.
5.12 Where the road marking shown in version B of diagram 1013.1 is so placed that the continuous lines are more than 175 mm apart and separated by the cross-hatching shown, the studs may be fitted in opposite pairs, within the width of each of the two lines, as an alternative to a single row between them (regulation 31(4)). When they are fitted in pairs, studs should be uni-directional so that only the line of studs nearer to the driver is fitted with reflectors which can be seen by that driver.
Argument now switches to if Reg 31(3) states they are required and they are not there
is the sign legal?
