Explanation

Sign 135 is a warning sign that warns of an approaching pedestrian crossing, and is posted some distance before it. Sign 306 is a regulatory sign that marks the location of the crossing itself and requires giving right of way to pedestrians. The difference is between an advance warning and an on-the-spot instruction.
