A horizontal yellow band runs across the top of the shield, and the route designation \u003cem\u003eS15\u003c\/em\u003e sits at its centre in bold characters. Beneath the route number, the Chinese characters 川, 高速 and 通广高速 identify the province, the expressway class and the expressway's name. The layout is strictly ordered, with high contrast between the white lettering and the green ground, so every element can be read at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA route marker is a navigational promise: it tells drivers which road they are on and where it leads. The S15 designation marks a provincial expressway, and the Tongguang Expressway (通广高速) links Tongjiang with Guang'an, two places in Sichuan that the route ties together. The design follows the visual standards of GB 5768, the national code for road traffic signs and markings in China, which explains why its colours, proportions and lettering read as they do. It is a piece of everyday infrastructure, made to be understood in a moment by anyone passing at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTurned in Your Hands\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is a surface you hold and turn, so the shield rarely shows all at once. Lift it and the S15 route number faces you across the top, then the characters and the yellow band come round as you rotate it. Each sip brings the same sign back into view, a small piece of Sichuan road design that a morning coffee can keep company with.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53208053317912,"sku":"GMY-MUG-SCHXPW-11OZ-238","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53208053350680,"sku":"GMY-MUG-SCHXPW-15OZ-102","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/sichuan-expwy-s15-sign-with-name-china-road-sign-black-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-SCHXPW-11OZ-238-front.webp?v=1794231415","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/sichuan-expwy-s15-sign-with-name-china-road-sign-black-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
