Motorway rules - You're on a smart motorway. What does it mean when a red cross is displayed above the hard shoulder?

Explanation

"Some motorways have been redesigned as smart motorways. At certain times, the hard shoulder will be open as a running lane. However, a red cross above the hard shoulder shows that it isn't open as a running lane and should only be used for emergencies and breakdowns."
