Ireland: R118 eastbound

This local dual carriageway with no shoulders dates from the 1970s. It forms the link between the N11 and Dun Laoghaire harbour and the ferry to Holyhead.

Mellor Signals, Georgian Quater, Dublin

It is prettey obvious that the Mellor was Dublins staple signal before the Swarco Alustar.

Mellor Signals, Georgian Quater, Dublin

the ahead filter here is somewhat hindered by the fact that roadworks block it's lane, so left and right traffic (who are held at a red light) are blocking ahead traffic. Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Oct 25, 2007 by traffic_signals

This is Clare Street, with Merrion Street to the left.

mellors in Dun Laoghaire

Formerly Kingstown. All the monarchs used to come in to Ireland through here so there's a couple of memorials here. The green thing is for Queen Victoria.

The sign says "DANGER LEVEL CROSSING, TRAFFIC LIGHTS AHEAD, DO NOT BLOCK YELLOW BOX"

Stop! x 5 (and don't turn left) The R118 meets its end at the M50.

A particularly untidy signal head in Dublin. The unusual set-up is because it is tied in to a level crossing out of sight on the left. If a pedestrian wants to cross, the right-amber light will come on to highlight the green filter arrow ending.

A rare example of a red arrow being used at a set of traffic lights.

The sign for J7 of the Dublin Inner Orbital, on Lincoln Place.

The sign for J9 of the Dublin Inner Orbital, on Leinster Street South.

The sign for J55 of the Dublin Outer Orbital, on Northumberland Road.

Traffic lights, Mount Street/Fitzwilliam Street, Georgian Quarter, Dublin

A typical set up of Mellor traffic lights on a crossroads. Note the pedestrian lights here appearing identical as the traffic lights.

Old set of SGE traffic lights at Warrington Place/Lwr Mount Street by the Grand Canal, Dublin (June 2005)

UPDATE: As of Winter 2006 it is with regret that this signal no longer exists as this junction was recently refurbished with new Motus AluStar heads.

New yellow pushbutton, Lincoln Place Dublin

I was taken aback to find seemingly brand new yellow pushbuttons at the junction of Lincoln Place / Westland Row. Normally old yellow types get replaced by smaller black Panich types with the larger button and pulsating tactile arrow
