peer agreement (net): +1against the traffic flow Explanation: It's not very elegant, but I can't think of a catchy way to say "in the direction from which the traffic is coming", which is literally what you're trying to say here. |

| Reference: Same idea, different wording. Reference information: Stolpen orienteras i första hand så att betjäning medger ögonkontakt mot trafikriktning. (Source: google "ögonkontakt mot trafikriktning") Stolplucka skall vara placerad på stolpens baksida sett i trafikriktningen. http://www.odeshog.se/download/18.15d681ec1333ee90dcf8000351... Stolplucka/central ska orienteras så att blickriktningen är mot trafikriktningen vid arbete i centralen https://www.halmstad.se/download/18.23a25fbe14937ab15f754a92... "mot trafikriktningen": in the context of the direction in which somebody is looking, it is probably the same as "in the direction of traffic": somebody looking in the direction (Sw. "mot") in which the traffic is moving. A source of confusion is that the box is facing one direction, while the operator must face the opposite direction. |
