Faded road sign, Belfast - Geograph - 1667781.jpg
Faded road sign, Belfast
Faded and peeling sign in Chichester Street. The patch was added when the lower part of the street (passing the Law Courts) was closed (for security reasons) to through traffic. It has now re-opened but as a bus lane and for access only <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1518888'>J3474 : Bus and bus lane, Belfast</a>.

York Street, Belfast (3)
See <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/702496'>J3374 : York Street, Belfast (2)</a>. York Street is a continuation of Royal Avenue towards York Road, the Shore Road and Carrickfergus. This is the southern end where it meets Donegall Street. The foreground was once the site of a major junction for the tramlines serving the Antrim and Crumlin Roads, Cliftonville, Oldpark and Greencastle. Cavendish Woodhouse occupied the white building on the left and the Co-op <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/702521'>J3374 : Former Co-op, Belfast (detail) (1)</a> was just beyond. The Art College <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/693237'>J3374 : The Art College, Belfast</a> is on the right.

See <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/596287'>J3082 : Sandyknowes roundabout near Belfast (1)</a>. Scullions Road is in the foreground (lower left). The road to Antrim is at middle-left. The traffic is heading for who-knowes-where!

See <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/596287'>J3082 : Sandyknowes roundabout near Belfast (1)</a>. The slip road to Scullions Road <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/596290'>J3082 : Sandyknowes roundabout near Belfast (2)</a> is in the foreground. The off-slip from the M2 <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/596302'>J3082 : Sandyknowes roundabout near Belfast (3)</a> is at middle right. The south-bound on-slip to Belfast is behind the flyover to the right. The full-time lights have made negotiation of the roundabout somewhat safer and less fraught.

Toome Bridge A new bridge over the river Bann, and part of the new Toomebridge bypass, it has made a great difference to a former busy bottleneck through the village. The arches are lit up at night which makes a very pretty sight.
