What it means
The S-573 sign is a kilometre marker on a European route. It informs of the European route and the associated kilometre point, helping you locate yourself, confirm continuity, and report an incident with a more precise reference. It does not order manoeuvres or by itself change the road category, its limits, or the applicable priorities. It usually appears on the edges of roads included in European routes, repeated along the route. When you see it, use it as an orientation or location reference and continue paying attention to the signs on the stretch. In the test they often distinguish it from other national or conventional-road kilometre markers.
