Does the prohibition sign placed under the built-up area sign indicate that the prohibition applies to the entire built-up area with the exception of the section of the road on which it has been replaced or cancelled?

Description

Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and of Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals. (Journal of Laws 2002, No. 170, item 1393, as amended)
Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

Yes, that's true. A prohibition sign (e.g., a speed limit) placed under the D-42 'Built-up area' sign introduces a restriction that applies throughout the entire locality. Such a prohibition is only cancelled by the D-43 'End of built-up area' sign, unless it is changed or cancelled earlier on a given section of road by another sign.
