Sweden — how to identify

Signposts have these stripes:

• white-and-blue
• red-and-yellow

Rural Swedish roads feature white, dashed outer lines. This is a key detail for identifying Sweden.

Line Length: These dashed lines are distinctly shorter compared to those found in neighboring countries.

Swedish bollards feature a flat top. Reflector: A grey rectangle is placed on a straight black stripe. This stripe does not wrap around the bollard.

Nearby countries use only a diagonal black stripe.

This Swedish sign has a light-blue square background. A large white triangle covers most of the sign, touching the top and sides but not the bottom.

Figure: A realistic black pedestrian is shown. The figure has no separate parts, with one leg on each of two zebra stripes.

Zebra Stripes: There are four thick black stripes below the pedestrian.

The Swedish alphabet includes three special letters: Å, Ä, and Ö. These letters are also found in other Nordic languages.

• Danish and Norwegian: Use Å.
• Icelandic: Uses Ö.
• Finnish: Uses Ä and Ö. Finnish words are often longer and have double vowels, unlike Swedish
