Traffic Cones


Traffic cones are one of the simplest yet most versatile and effective forms of signage, and they are indispensable when it comes to managing a range of situations on the road. Lightweight and easy to stack, traffic cones can be set out quickly, creating an instant warning display or marking out an alternative route and traffic flow system.

At Safetyshop, we have years of experience specialising in safety signage and equipment. We supply a range of cones to help ensure that you are compliant with all health and safety legislation.

Our selection of cheap traffic cones for sale UK-wide is designed for use in a wide range of situations. From parking cones to road safety cones, we’ve got you covered. All of our road cones are made from tough, long-lasting polyethene/PVC to withstand many knocks and extreme weather conditions. Reflective sleeves meet the requirements of safety standards.

What are the regulations relating to traffic cones in the UK?


Traffic cones must be used in certain situations to comply with the requirements of relevant legislation. Traffic management systems at sites optimise the safety of employees and the public. If you need detailed guidance on the type of warning equipment to be used in highway works areas, including the colour, style and size of cones and the spacing, you can find out more here.

How are traffic cones colour coded?


We have affordable traffic cones available in a variety of colours, for use in different situations. Colour coding for cones helps convey information immediately to drivers and pedestrians passing any work site or location ensuring their safety.

  • Red cones (also described as orange cones) with a white reflective sleeve are the most commonly used traffic cone. Red or orange cones are the standards for roadworks in the UK. You can find red road cones in three sizes: 500mm, 750mm and 1000mm. You can also opt for cones with a sand-weighted base, which are ideal for exposed sites

  • Yellow parking cones show that no parking is permitted in the designated area. Our no parking traffic cones feature a highway code compliant no parking symbol. They are the ideal solution for demarcating temporary no-parking zones.

  • Our fluorescent yellow cones are designed to warn pedestrians of hazards, such as slip risks. This type of cone may have additional markings to identify the relevant danger. Our fluorescent yellow cone for slip hazards is also effective in dim light conditions.

  • Blue cones are used to make people aware of overhead structures. They can warn drivers of tall vehicles that there is a potential collision point.

  • Green safety cones indicate the entrance and exit points to access lanes for construction sites so workers can see where they need to turn.


Choosing affordable traffic cones


Value for money is essential when you are buying traffic cones. Our heavy-duty traffic cones are robust and durable. However, occasionally some cones will inevitably get damaged if they are hit by a heavy vehicle and will need to be replaced. A more common problem is pilfering of traffic cones. Figures are not available for losses of traffic cones UK-wide, but it is estimated that over one million traffic cones are stolen every year in the USA. The theft of traffic cones, particularly in significant numbers, is a nuisance. It means you need to be in a position to replace them quickly at work sites, to maintain compliance with health and safety legislation, and to minimise the risk of injury for people in the area.

It is vital to have a ready supply of affordable cones so that replacements are immediately available if items are damaged or stolen. With Safetyshop, you don’t need to compromise on quality to get affordable traffic cones. Our road safety cones are excellent value for money, with the strength and durability required. They can meet any budget, and volume discounts are available.

At Safetyshop, in addition to the heavy duty traffic cones for sale in our range, we can produce custom-finished cones to display your own choice of text or your logo. You will also find an extensive selection of accessories and safety signs that you can use to alert the public to risks from work sites. These include the Skipper Rechargeable Highway Light, which can be mounted on a cone and set to switch on automatically with the low light sensor.
