    The centre lane is now, and has been for some weeks, straight on only. You can no longer turn right from the centre lane by the Bus Station. Would Cork drivers please take note before there is an accident.

    I find it's the taxi drivers treating it as an express route to the rank on Parnell place is the biggest issue. I cut one up recently (I had right of way, he didn't indicate right) and all I got was abuse for it. I didn't do anything wrong in doing so either before someone says I shouldn't be cutting him up.

    In the mornings it means traffic between there and the next bridge is heavier too but it was a risky turn anyway with two lanes turning right.

    always was awkward particularly with a bus involved and if the right turn light was red, the traffic sat in the middle lane blocking those wanting to go straight. It's a good change, but few people have noticed. Needs more signage and the arrows done properly

    Maybe new arrows should be painted in bright orange for the first year.
    For every careless driver theres probably more who just don't know its changed.

    I normally take the RH lane when turning into Parnell Place anyway. Have to say I didn't notice the arrows though.

    they haven't so much painted new arrows, rather they painted out part of the old ones. Not very clear
