Road signs in Latvia

Road signs in Latvia conform to the general pattern of those used in most other European countries.

[3] During the 1920s and 1930s, Latvia had developed various road signs but after Latvia was occupied and later annexed by the Soviet Union during the World War II, it used the Soviet road sign standard before adopting its own.

In 1980, the standard for road signs GOST 10807-78 was adopted in the Soviet Union before its dissolution in 1991.

Recently, some signs have been introduced with Latvian supplemented by Livonian and Latgalian.

In November 2021, the first standard-compliant road sign with Latgalian was placed on the border of Balvi Municipality, with others being gradually installed in other locations in Latgale.
