Types of Hatched Road Markings
Hatched road markings are a type of road marking that is used to indicate a no-entry zone or an area where vehicles are not allowed to pass. They are typically made up of a series of parallel lines that are spaced apart to create a hatched pattern.
There are several types of hatched road markings that are used on roads, each with its own specific meaning and purpose.
Single-Hatched Markings
Single-hatched markings are used to indicate a no-overtaking zone they come in the form of solid white lines and broken white lines. These markings are typically found on roads where the visibility is limited, such as on a hill or a bend in the road.
The hatched markings are intended to prevent drivers from attempting to overtake another vehicle in an area where it may be unsafe to do so.
Double-Hatched Markings
Double-hatched markings are double white lines that are used to indicate a no-entry zone. They are typically found in the centre of the road and indicate that vehicles are not allowed to cross over into the opposite lane.
These double white lines marking are intended to prevent head-on collisions and keep traffic flowing in the correct direction.
Diagonal Hatched Markings
Diagonal hatched markings are used to indicate an area where parking or stopping is prohibited. They are typically found in areas such as intersections, pedestrian crossings, and cycle lanes.
These markings are intended to keep these areas clear for pedestrians and cyclists and to prevent traffic from obstructing visibility.
Box Hatched Markings
Box hatched markings are used to indicate an area where queuing or stopping is prohibited. They are typically found at junctions, roundabouts, and other areas where traffic needs to flow smoothly.
These markings are intended to prevent congestion and keep traffic moving smoothly through the area.

Benefits of Hatched Area Bay Markings
Hatched area bay markings, also known as cross-hatching or diagonal stripes, are common road markings used to indicate areas where parking or stopping is prohibited. These markings have several benefits, including:
Improved Safety
Hatched area bay markings help improve safety on the road by reducing the risk of accidents.
They are typically used in areas where visibility is poor, such as at intersections or on narrow roads, to prevent vehicles from blocking the view of other drivers or pedestrians.
By keeping these areas clear, hatched area bay markings help drivers and pedestrians stay aware of their surroundings and avoid collisions.
Better Traffic Flow
Hatched area bay markings also help to improve traffic flow.
By designating certain areas as no parking or stopping zones, these markings help to keep the road clear for vehicles to pass through smoothly.
This is particularly important in busy areas, such as near schools or shopping centres, roundabouts and mini roundabouts, where congestion can quickly become a problem with other vehicles.
More Efficient Use of Space
Hatched area bay markings can also help to maximize the use of available space. By designating certain areas for parking or stopping, these markings ensure that the space is used efficiently and that vehicles are parked or stopped in a way that does not obstruct traffic or pedestrians.
Clear Guidance for Drivers
Hatched area bay markings provide clear guidance for drivers, indicating where parking or stopping is allowed and where it is prohibited.
This helps to avoid confusion and reduces the likelihood of drivers inadvertently parking in a no-parking zone or stopping in a prohibited area.
Road Markings for Loading Bays
We install double yellow lines to indicate loading parking bays in all kinds of settings.
These road markings can be installed on your business site and in car parks to increase safety when loading large loads to the premises. The yellow paint indicates instantly that there is a hazard and will ensure that this space is kept clear as it is separate from other car parking bays.
We provide a range of car park line marking services to our clients in Kent, including markings for loading parking bays which are done to indicate which spaces are not in use for pedestrians or cars.
Hatched Bay Marking Design
Included in all our marking services is a free site survey which allows us to see what your car park needs. Before we install any road markings, we will indicate which areas need to be separated and prepare the surface.
We aim to install all road markings, whether this is for a disabled bay or loading bay, with minimal disruption to your business.
Our Kent markings can be installed on all kinds of surfaces as long as it has been prepared first. We work with concrete, tarmac, and some metal surfaces with our paint lines. As a leading road marking company, we also offer thermoplastic line marking, which can be installed quickly.
Hatched Bay Marking Colours
We paint our road markings on any surface, such as concrete or tarmac, in two colours.
This will either be the traditional white, such as for car park line marking, or yellow. White lining is commonly used in multi-storey car parks or main roads to indicate walkways and car parking spaces and to set the overall layout.
Any road markings with a yellow line are typically more of a hazard.
Highest Quality Thermoplastic Materials
We provide both yellow and white lining in thermoplastic which offers an efficient installation, long-term results, and can be more affordable.
Our company relies on the highest quality materials for all our line marking to ensure we can meet the needs of our customers and provide the best service.
Our thermoplastic markings can be found throughout London congestion areas as well as in New Blue cycle routes due to their durability. With these thermoplastic line markings, foot traffic is permitted for around 4 years, and our road markings are valid for up to 2,000 wheel turns.
This is what sets our marking services apart from any other, and we are happy to install lines in any space where they are needed in places such as parking bays.
