    Just curious. I noticed a triangle symbol on the north bound M50 exit signs for N3 and Castlenock. I presume it's for a alternative route or something similar like the diamond that used to be on the M7/N8 before Abeyleix was bypassed. Does anyone know what exactly it's for?

    It's part of a new trial under the auspices of Infrastructure Ireland regarding diversionary routes to be taken if/when an M route is closed.

    I expect further publicity measures will be undertaken in due course.

    Some further information is available via the UK Road Traffic Signs websites....

    Ah I was thinking it was relatively new. Thanks for that.
