Description:New AluStars at Fitzwilliam St/Baggot St, Georgian Quarter Dublin

The former home of Dublin's final set of SGE traffic lights which disappeared recently. A very sad development indeed. The new AluStars were installed due to the demand for a pedestrian crossing facility and a protected right turn phase.

I would have to say the AluStars don't look at all right fitting in the historical character of the location that the old SGEs did. Take a look at one AluStar mounted on a Georgian ornamental streetlight which pretty much says it all!
