The upper field is a deep green that covers most of the design, with a yellow band beneath it. Across the shield sit the white letter \u003cstrong\u003eS\u003c\/strong\u003e and the numeral \u003cstrong\u003e5\u003c\/strong\u003e, the route designation at the heart of the sign. Chinese characters, \u003cstrong\u003e津\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e高\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e速\u003c\/strong\u003e, carry the provincial name in a flat, legible arrangement. Nothing is decorative: every element is there to be read at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach element tells a driver where they are and which road they are on. The S prefix marks a provincial expressway, the 5 identifies this particular route, and the characters name the Tianjin network it belongs to. The design follows the national standard GB 5768, the regulation governing road traffic signs and markings in China, so its colours and proportions mirror the signage used across the country's highways. It is a modern, practical emblem of how China's expressway system is navigated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOn the Coffee Mug\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA route marker is built to be glimpsed from a moving car, but a mug turns that glance into a slow, repeated look. Wrapped around the curve of the body and turned in the hand, the shield's green field and yellow band sit right where your eyes land over the first sip. It is a cheeky way to keep the open road close to your morning coffee, and a gift for anyone who has ever followed a highway sign halfway across a map.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53165881557272,"sku":"GMY-MUG-TNJXPW-11OZ-1FMFW","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53165881590040,"sku":"GMY-MUG-TNJXPW-15OZ-1FMFW","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/tianjin-expwy-s5-sign-no-name-china-road-sign-white-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-TNJXPW-11OZ-1FMFW-front.webp?v=1793952038","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/tianjin-expwy-s5-sign-no-name-china-road-sign-white-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
