The three-sided pyramidal body carries a highly reflective No Waiting symbol on all three faces, ensuring the restriction is communicated to drivers and pedestrians approaching from any direction at any time of day or night. At 530mm it is the tallest no waiting cone in the range, providing visibility above vehicle bonnets in busy surface and multi-storey car park environments. The two-piece construction allows independent replacement of the top or base, and both carry their own branding options making it the most customisable no waiting cone in the range. Available individually and in bulk packs of 100 and 200.
A standard round cone carries its No Waiting symbol on one face. In a busy car park where drivers approach from multiple directions simultaneously, a single-face symbol cone must be oriented towards each approaching driver, which is impractical when drivers approach from different angles at the same time. A cone placed sideways to a driver communicates nothing about the restriction until they have already stopped. The three-sided pyramidal body on this cone carries the No Waiting symbol on all three faces, ensuring at least one face is directly visible to any driver or pedestrian approaching from any angle. In multi-entrance car parks, loading bay areas, and pedestrian zones where approach directions are unpredictable, that omnidirectional visibility removes the orientation requirement entirely and ensures the restriction is always communicated at the point of approach.
Highly reflective No Waiting symbol on all three faces: The restriction is visible from every approach direction simultaneously, day and night, without any need to orient the cone towards traffic. In car parks, loading bays, and pedestrian areas where approach directions are unpredictable, omnidirectional restriction communication is a practical operational advantage.
530mm height: The tallest no waiting cone in the range. Greater visibility above vehicle bonnets in surface and multi-storey car park environments where a shorter cone may be obscured by parked vehicles on either side.
Two-piece construction: Top and base separate independently. Replace only the damaged component rather than the complete unit. On large fleets deployed and recovered daily, this directly reduces per-unit replacement cost over a full operating season.
Dual branding positions on each face: The top carries two separate branding positions on each face, above and below the No Waiting symbol. Combined with the customisable base, every visible surface of the cone can carry corporate identity — no other no waiting cone in the range offers this.
Customisable base: The base can be embossed with a corporate logo and coloured to match brand identity. Practical for car park operators, local authorities, and facilities managers running large branded fleets where cone identification and corporate consistency are operational requirements.
Impact-resistant UV-stabilised recyclable plastic: Engineered for long-term outdoor performance. UV stabilisation prevents colour fading on car parks, loading bays, and roadside locations where cones are deployed for extended periods in all weather.
Simple separate stacking: Tops and bases stack separately for compact and stable storage. Practical for operations deploying and recovering large numbers of cones daily from a central store or vehicle.
BS EN 13422 compliant sleeve: The No Waiting symbol meets the reflectivity requirements for use under Chapter 8 and Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions.

This triangular no waiting cone is used by car park managers, local authority parking teams, facilities managers, and event managers who need a no waiting restriction that communicates to drivers approaching from any direction simultaneously, without any need to orient the cone towards traffic. It is suited to high-density car park environments, loading bay areas, and pedestrian zones where approach directions are unpredictable and a single-face symbol cone would require constant repositioning to remain effective. The dual branding positions and customisable base make it the preferred choice for car park operators, local authorities, and facilities management companies who need a branded, identifiable cone fleet for large managed estates.
Multi-storey and surface car park bay reservation and restricted zone marking where drivers approach from multiple directions simultaneously.
Loading bay and emergency access route control at retail, commercial, and healthcare properties where clear, visible restriction marking from all approach angles is essential.
Disabled bay and reserved bay enforcement at commercial, retail, and public sector car parks where the restriction must be visible to drivers entering the bay from any angle.
Event site parking management where temporary no waiting zones, circulation routes, and drop-off areas must be communicated clearly to drivers with no prior knowledge of the site layout.
Pedestrian area and walkway restriction marking at shopping centres, transport hubs, and public spaces where both pedestrian and vehicle approach directions are mixed.
Temporary no waiting enforcement on public roads where a Traffic Regulation Order or Section 14 order is in place and a highly visible restriction marker is required.
NHS and healthcare estate parking management where reserved bays, ambulance access routes, and drop-off zones require a restriction cone visible to drivers approaching from any direction.
Step 1: Confirm the correct legal basis for any restriction on a public road before deployment. On private land, confirm the restriction is consistent with the site parking policy and supporting signage.
Step 2: Place the cone in the centre or at the entrance of the restricted area. The three-sided body means no orientation is required, the No Waiting symbol faces every approach direction automatically.
Step 3: For loading bay and emergency access route applications, place cones at both ends of the restricted zone and at the centre if the zone is long enough that a single cone would not be visible from both approach ends.
Step 4: Stack tops and bases separately for transport and storage. Tops nest together and bases stack flat, allowing compact storage of large quantities without interlocking or jamming.
Step 5: Before redeployment, inspect each cone. Check the No Waiting symbol is clean and legible on all three faces. Replace tops where the symbol is permanently obscured, torn, or faded.
Step 6: Replace damaged tops and bases independently, only the component that is damaged needs replacing.
Placing the cone off-centre in a restricted bay: The three-sided construction communicates the restriction from all angles only when the cone is positioned where all three faces are visible. A cone pushed to one side of a bay may obscure one or two faces behind a vehicle or wall, reducing omnidirectional visibility.
Assuming the cone creates a legal restriction on a public road without a legal order: On a public highway, the No Waiting symbol communicates a restriction but does not create one. A Traffic Regulation Order or Section 14 order is required for statutory enforcement. On private land, enforceability depends on the parking policy and supporting legal framework in place.
Using this cone for Chapter 8 highway traffic management: This is a yellow no waiting cone, not an orange Chapter 8 highway traffic management cone. Using it in a lane closure or taper layout creates a compliance risk.
Stacking tops and bases together: Tops and bases are designed to stack separately. Attempting to stack assembled units wastes space and risks instability during transport and storage.
Ignoring symbol legibility on individual faces: On a fleet deployed in all weather conditions over extended periods, individual faces may become fouled with mud, dust, or spray. Inspect all three faces before each deployment, not just the face visible from the most common approach direction.
On public highways, deploy in accordance with the applicable Traffic Regulation Order or Section 14 order and any associated traffic management plan. This cone is not suitable for Chapter 8 highway traffic management. On event sites and private land, deploy in accordance with the event safety management plan and relevant risk assessment. Operatives placing cones on public roads or in areas with vehicle movements must wear appropriate high-visibility clothing for the environment and risk level. The cone is a restriction communication device, it does not physically prevent vehicle access and must not be used as a substitute for certificated barriers or vehicle restraint systems where those are required.
Inspect all three faces of the No Waiting symbol before each deployment. Clean contaminated faces with a damp cloth, do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that may degrade the reflective symbol surface. Replace tops where the symbol is permanently obscured, faded, or torn on any face. Inspect the base for structural damage and loss of weighted stability. Replace damaged tops and bases independently. Store tops and bases separately in a covered location away from prolonged UV exposure and extreme heat when not in active use.
Q: Why is a three-sided triangular cone better than a round cone for car park and loading bay use?
A: A round cone carries its No Waiting symbol on one face. In a car park or loading bay where drivers approach from multiple directions simultaneously, a single-face symbol is only legible to a driver approaching from the direction the symbol faces. A driver approaching from the side or rear sees only a plain yellow cone with no restriction information until they have already entered the restricted area. The three-sided body carries the symbol on all three faces, ensuring the restriction is visible from every approach direction at all times without any need to orient the cone. In multi-entrance car parks and loading bays with complex circulation patterns, that omnidirectional visibility removes the orientation requirement entirely.
Q: Does this cone create a legal no waiting restriction on a public road?
A: The cone communicates a no waiting restriction through the reflective symbol but does not create a legal restriction on a public highway by itself. Statutory no waiting enforcement on a public road requires a Traffic Regulation Order or a Section 14 temporary order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. On private land including car parks and event sites, the cone is a practical restriction marker and its enforceability depends on the parking policy and legal framework in place.
Q: What is the difference between this cone and the 460mm circular no waiting cone?
A: The two cones serve different environments and use cases. The 460mm circular cone is a compact lightweight one-piece cone for lower-density car parks, event sites, and general parking control where weight and portability are priorities. The 530mm triangular cone is the taller, heavier two-piece premium cone for managed car parks, loading bays, and enforcement applications where omnidirectional symbol visibility, branded fleet identity, and extended outdoor durability are the primary requirements. The triangular cone's dual branding positions and customisable base also make it the better choice for operators who need a fully branded cone fleet.
Q: Can I brand this cone with our company logo?
A: Yes. The top carries two separate branding positions on each face, above and below the No Waiting symbol, making it the most customisable no waiting cone in the range. The base can also be embossed with a corporate logo and coloured to match brand identity. Combined, every visible surface of the cone can carry corporate branding. This is particularly relevant for car park operators, local authorities, NHS trusts, and facilities management companies running large identified fleets where cone ownership, brand consistency, and theft deterrence are operational priorities. Contact the CMT sales team on 020 8311 1144 or at sales@cmt.co.uk to discuss branding options and minimum order quantities.
Q: What is this cone NOT suitable for?
A: This cone must not be used for Chapter 8 highway traffic management in place of orange cones. It must not be used as a substitute for certificated vehicle restraint systems or pedestrian barriers where those are specified. On public roads, it cannot create a legal no waiting restriction without the required Traffic Regulation Order or Section 14 order. It is a restriction communication and demarcation device, it does not physically prevent vehicle access.
Q: How do the tops and bases stack for storage and transport?
A: Tops and bases stack separately. Tops nest together in a stable column for compact storage and vehicle loading. Bases stack flat. Storing them separately rather than as assembled units significantly reduces the storage footprint of a large cone fleet and makes loading and unloading faster for operatives deploying and recovering large numbers of cones on daily operations.
Q: How quickly can I get these cones delivered for a managed car park or event scheme?
A: Order by 7pm for next-day delivery to UK mainland sites. CMT Group operates its own fleet covering over 95% of the UK mainland with live order tracking, real-time ETAs, and What3Words integration for delivery to a specific car park, venue entrance, or site location.
