R8-3gP Purpose and Use
A Loading Zone placard converts a general no parking sign into a delivery-only restriction without replacing the main sign.
Fit it below an existing R8-3 to convert a general prohibition into a delivery-only zone without replacing the main sign.
R8-3gP Questions
Can I convert an existing no parking sign into a loading zone?
Yes. Mounting the R8-3gP beneath an existing R8-3 turns a general prohibition into a delivery only restriction without replacing the main sign.
Is a placard cheaper than replacing the whole sign?
Usually, and it reuses the post and hardware already in place. It also keeps the recognizable no parking sign face rather than swapping in unfamiliar wording.
R8-3gP Reflective Sheeting Options
Because the R8-3gP mounts below a main sign and should match the sheeting above it, the T-11500 OmniCube - up to 60 percent brighter with a 12-year outdoor durability rating - is the safer choice when night visibility matters most, while the T-6500 High Intensity Prismatic delivers proven 10-year durability.

- Very Reflective At Night
- Required for Most Highway Signs
- 10 Year Outdoor Durability
- Brightest and Most Visible
- Most Reflective At Night
- Up to 60 percent brighter than HIP
- 12 Year Outdoor Durability
The R8-3gP puts a red legend on a white reflective background, and white returns more light than any other color under ASTM D4956, so nearly the entire face lights up under headlights. That is why stepping up to the T-11500 OmniCube produces such a visible change on this sign: you are brightening the color that already dominates the sign face.

R8-3gP Mounting Hole Pattern and Spacing
The R8-3gP is a horizontal placard, so its mounting holes are spaced to line up with the holes of the sign it mounts beneath, letting both share a single post without drilling
