EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.)
These Regulations prescribe new regulatory road traffic signs to be used by road authorities, from 1 May 2013, to indicate the application of new road traffic regulations in respect of no entry, maximum length/width/weight/axle loading of vehicles; prohibition on pedal cycles, animals, animal-drawn vehicles, vehicles carrying explosives (tunnels) and use of mini-roundabouts.
The Regulations also prescribe, from 1 October 2012, a 40km/h speed limit sign and the variable message signs to be used to apply traffic lane controls and to apply variable special speed limits on national roads and motorways (other than in tunnels). In addition, the Road Traffic (Signs) Regulations 1997 to 2011 are amended to prescribe alternative design and dimensions for some traffic signs. The amendments also include revision and consolidation of the law on traffic signs used for pedestrian crossings, bus stops and traffic signals: the range of displays on traffic lights is expanded for directional arrows, control of buses and U-turns, the provisions of 2003 for tram signals for street running of light rail vehicles are restated as are the provisions for traffic lights for pedal cyclists (resulting in the revocation of Road Traffic (Signs) Regulations 2011 ( S.I. No. 672 of 2011 )).
