    Is there a dedicated lane to look out for, like with the east link, or do you just lash through anywhere with a big grin on your face and a wave???

    No dedicated lane, but if you are feeling up for it, use the hard shoulder! ** :D


    ** not necessarily good advice or legal advice

    Dont use the hard sholder, a lad was killed up there a short while ago when he went into the back of a truck doing just that.

    Skip ahead of the que, go up to a maned pay station and he/she will let you through, you will see 0.00 come up as the fee.

    Thats a little difficult these days.... no toll boths so just drive on but watch for cars switching lanes and panic attacks as they realise something is missing.

    My comment was in jest my good man. :)

    Altho lets be honest, bikers have the same risk of being killed regardless of what lane we are in! :eek:

    I dont use the M50 much. Is there an obvious improvment since the barriers are gone?

    yeah no tail backs around the toll bridge. Traffic usually only stick around the roadworks now, usually between Finglas and the M1 and Ballymount to Sandyford.
