Editing International E-road network (section)

==Signage==

Where the European routes are signed, green signs with white numbers are used.

There are different strategies for determining how frequently to signpost the roads.
* [[Sweden]], [[Norway]] and [[Denmark]] have integrated the E-road numbers into their networks, meaning that the roads usually have no other national number.
* In [[Belgium]], E-numbers are traditionally associated with [[highway]]s, even though other grade E-roads pass through the country. As a result, the E-number is signposted (and referred to) only on the highway portions of the E-road network, while for non-motorways only the national number (if any) is shown. On the highway portions of the E-network, the E-numbers are the standard and thus referred to in news bulletins rather than the national number. [[Serbia]] and [[Italy]] have a similar principle.
* In most countries the E-roads form a network on top of the national network. The green signs are frequent enough to show how to follow the roads, but do not usually show how to reach them.
* In some countries, like [[Croatia]], [[Bulgaria]] and [[Albania]], E-roads are well signposted, but they sometimes follow older routes instead of highways.
* In some countries, like [[German Autobahnen|Germany]], [[Autostrade of Italy|Italy]] and [[Highways in Greece|Greece]], E-roads are signposted only on motorways and main road itineraries.
* In [[Republic of Ireland|Ireland]] the signposting of E-roads is specified in Chapter 2 of the 2010 Traffic Signs Manual published by the Department of Transport, and specifies that E-roads are to be signed on route confirmation signs only.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dttas.ie/sites/default/files/publications/roads/english/traffic-signs-manual-2010/traffic-signs-manual-2010-chapter-2-directional-information-signs.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150614225944/http://www.dttas.ie/sites/default/files/publications/roads/english/traffic-signs-manual-2010/traffic-signs-manual-2010-chapter-2-directional-information-signs.pdf |archive-date=2015-06-14 |url-status=live |title=2.

Since then they have gradually spread across the E-road network in Ireland.
