Your FAQ

Question: Can I have a Brown Sign for our Club / Society

Answer: No – the policy states brown signs can only be used for establishment open to the public without prior booking during normal opening hours. However, it maybe possible for a white directional sign to be designed. In the first instance make a written request to the Traffic Section at Enterprise House stating the exact reasons why you feel a sign is needed, the location you feel it is needed and a copy of the directional information issued to your customers / members. Please be aware the onus is on yourselves to provide clear and concise directional information in your newsletters / literature to your members or visitors and we will only consider a request if the establishment in question is practically difficult to locate, is not already in a location over proliferated with signage and upon receipt of payment for sign costs. We have the right to refuse any request.
