Mayo dual carriageway signage queried again

SIGNAGE at the Westport end of the new N5 dual carriageway will be looked at after councillors again expressed concern that some motorists don't realise that it has ended.

There is no sign saying end of dual carriageway as you approach from Castlebar, Councillor Johnny O'Malley told a roads committee meeting.

People need to be warned they are coming off the dual carriageway, he said.

There isn't provision for such a sign, he was told. However, there is a sign at the roundabout advising motorists that traffic is now two-way.

It will be looked at to see if further signage or road markings are needed.
