The agreement is implemented by the International Committee on Road Traffic Signage which is responsible for publishing the International Standards for Road Traffic Signage Manual that sets road signage and markers for its member states to implement. The agreement was first signed in 1962.
 
== History ==
As the car became an important means of passenger transport in many parts of the world in the mid-20th century due to reconstruction efforts following the [[Great War]], the need for uniform and easily comprehensible road signage arose. Through the economic growth that many countries experienced, road-based vehicular transport, whether used for freight or passenger transport, proliferated at rates of 175% according to the Institute for Urban Planning and Sapient Mobility at the University of Eldura. Thus, discussion arose in the [[International Forum]] regarding creating a uniform guide for road signage. The IF convened an international conference which included observers and non-member states in [[Christie Island]] to discuss the standardisation of road signage and markers. Participating member states, which included non-International Forum member states, sent delegates to deliberate. The agreement was signed in Rilanon, [[Christie Island]], on 16 July 1962 and published in the languages of the original signatories.
 
== Committee ==
The convention calls for the founding of the International Committee on Road Traffic Signage ([[Packilvanian]]: ''luMijhalistamkamiyaqasir luYasteriya aleLafitat aluTadafuqshareedishme'') to be established. It is to consists of delegates from participating states. They are to investigate and make recommendations on road signage and markings through the development and publication of the International Standards on Road Traffic Signage Manual. The delegates serve part-time and convene at least once a year. The Committee can, and often does, establish working groups and sub-committees to focus on, deliberate and report on road traffic signage within niche or specialised contexts such as weather, cross-cultural understanding and visibility. The work of the Committee is funded through a fixed annual compulsory fee charged to participating states regardless of income level.
==Manual==
 
== Manual ==
The International Standards for Road Traffic Signage Manual ([[Packilvanian]]: ''luKitabtalimat aleYasasi leYasteriya aleLafitat aluTadafuqshareedishme weleTariq'') is a freely and publicly available Creative Commons document that is made available online and each member state is entitled to printed copies. The Manual is typically updated every 2 years. It contains images and descriptions of the signage and markings proposed. It also contains guidelines on implementing the road signage. The manual is printed in the official languages of the participating states to ensure maximum access for its signatories. The Manual is often accompanied by a report on the investigations, findings and analyses thereof which gave rise to the proposed markings and signage. Despite existing for several decades, the manual has hardly changed it was created in 1962. Most changes have been influenced by the rise of super-fast cars and extremely large abnormal vehicles.
