[L06_03_1.jpg] When a 70 km/h sign is placed above the start of a built-up area sign, the brown car is permitted to drive up to 70 km/h until the next junction.

Inside a built-up area the limit is 50 km/h (Brussels 30 km/h). A sign at or after the start sign may allow more, for example 70 up to the next junction. A '30' sign above the built-up-area sign means 30 in the whole area.
