South Dublin County Council speed limit changes

South Dublin County Council speed limit changes will kick in on 8 May: http://www.sdublincoco.ie/index.aspx?pageid=939&pid=37154 The main changes are 30 km/h in most housing estates, while lots of boreens will go from 60 to 80 km/h. :rolleyes: Be just a little bit more careful up the mountains.

The old speed limits are here: http://product.itoworld.com/map/124?lon=-6.34644&lat=53.35920&zoom=12 The ITO map (based on www.openstreetmap.org data) refreshes every few weeks. I've started to add the South Dublin speed limit changes.

I saw what I presume are illegal signs up in an estate.

Cormac Devlin is no stranger to illegal posters, he had several ones mimicking road signs in the last election, many heavily encroaching cycle lanes.

At least these ones are trying to make things safer, his were distracting drivers on the N11 with complete disregard for public safety. Putting people's lives at risk for his own gain.

Road Traffic Act, 1961

(14) A person shall not provide any such sign, device, notice or light as is not a traffic sign if, on provision thereof, it is visible from a public road and?

(a) it is capable of being confused with a traffic sign,

Though I expect someone will defend the sign saying it looks 100% absolutely nothing like a traffic sign, as the real ones is not rectangular with writing, and the circle is not perfectly round, and the red pantone colour does not match...

Watson estate is in the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council area
