I have also seen it written on here that the road works types also consider that they don't need to tell us when the limit returns to normal, end of works is sufficient.
Where did you see that? Genuinely interested - I'm a "road works type" and I wasn't aware of that.
Diagram 7006 (or 7001 with the 'End' plate) - signifies end of road works and any associated temporary restrictions.

I recognise that interior as a transit custom, better than most cars tongue out

Mine's got reversing camera, cruise control, leather seats...

Why not have a look at your updated copy of the highway code??
I can't see it. Know your traffic signs page 20 shows no yellow characters, can you be more specific? Maybe TSRGD?

But from DESIGN MANUAL FOR ROADS AND BRIDGES

9.3.6 The size, colour and shape of legends used on signs of Class 17 shall conform as near as practicable with the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions (Ref 5) and the Traffic Signs Manual (Ref 9). Any proposed character set, symbols and spacings to be used for this Class of sign shall be referred to the Overseeing Organisation for approval.
Maybe something 'flexible' like this is used to justify the confusion.

After an enforceable speed limit ie. the ones with the red circle around them, the system will put a 'Derestriction emblem@ ie a red squarcle with a diagonal line, up on the gantry at the end of the limit area.

Although you are normally correct I have also just seen END.
