Use of Irish on Traffic Signs
The use of Irish on the country's traffic signs is the most visible illustration of the state's policy regarding our official languages, Irish and English. The road authorities are obliged to adhere to the obligations imposed on them with regard to the use of those languages on traffic signs under the Traffic Signs Manual. The authorities involved are the National Roads Authority and the country's local authorities.
A summary of the obligations imposed on road authorities in this regard is available at the link below:
