, all signs are partly or fully reflectorized or are provided with their own night-time illumination. The current set of designs were introduced through a reform that went into effect 1 June 2006, replacing the old sets from 1967 and 1980. As the law outlining this reform was published 7 October 2005, some signs were already replaced before the law went into effect. The most notable change was the removal of hats and hair on the stickmen making them gender-neutral, but many signs were redesigned or introduced for the first time, as noted below.


Warning signs

Warning signs are mostly triangular, with black symbols on a white background with a red border. Warning signs that are used only temporarily have a yellow background. On Svalbard, a unique warning sign with a black background and white symbol is used for polar bears. File:NO road sign 100.1.svg,
