Usual lack of joined up thinking…

Two poles are always better than one!

Hi @dlrcc @LorraineHallFG @barrymward 👋 Is there any chance these signs can be removed? This is now a one-way street due to the brilliant cycle lane. Cars can only go in the opposite direction. At a minimum, the parking sign can be removed as it’s repeated on the bigger sign.

[Daragh Cassidy @DaraghCassidy]

A brand new traffic sign from @dlrcc to warn (cyclists?) of an upcoming traffic light. Because the bright flashing lights themselves aren’t enough. This st is now 1-way for cars. So it can’t be for drivers. This sign is up there with the Ramps sign as being the most pointless imo

On two sides of the same road! In
#Sandycove & #Glasthule, two examples of #badsignage and contradictory signage #asGaeilge: #LinkRoad, between #Glasthule village and #Newtownsmith; and #MarineParade between Link Road/Newtownsmith and #SandycoveAvenueWest. #DúnLaoghaire @dlrcc

@SusanTheSilent @donna_cooney1 @velo_colin @IBIKEDublin @dublincycling @Cyclistie @kv_ofarrell @RSAIreland @IRVAroadsafety @IrishCycle @S2Sdublin @DubCityCouncil When I first cycled along there at night I nearly hit them a few times before I fixed them in my memory. I'm genuinely surprised someone hasn't hit them at speed because they're not very visible in the dark.

@donna_cooney1 @CitizenW0lf @velo_colin @IBIKEDublin @dublincycling @Cyclistie @kv_ofarrell @RSAIreland @IRVAroadsafety @IrishCycle @S2Sdublin @DubCityCouncil They’re a bit bizarre, aren’t they? Not to mention a hindrance and slightly dangerous to maintaining balance.

@CitizenW0lf @velo_colin @IBIKEDublin @dublincycling @Cyclistie @kv_ofarrell @donna_cooney1 @RSAIreland @IRVAroadsafety @IrishCycle @S2Sdublin What is the purpose of the poles?

[UnnecessarySignPosts @DLR_unnecessary]

@dlrcc @DLR_Libraries @dlrArts @dlrheritevents @dlrLexIcon @DisabilityFed @smytho What about dealing with some of the totally unnecessary poles and signposts scattered throughout @dlrcc? They are also impediments to people with mobility issues and visual impairment.

Wednesday 26 September is Make Way Day. A reminder not to block footpaths for people with buggies, walking frames, or wheelchairs. #MakeWayDublin

@barrymward Go raibh maith agat Barry, déanfaimid imscrúdú air seo.

Cad a tharla anseo @dlrcc? Níl, agus ní raibh, aon 'b' i dTrimleston riomh ré! Tá Timbleston, nó "Baile Trimble" i mBaile na Gabhar, agus #Trimleston i mBaile an Bhóthair. Ba cheart "Bóthar Trimleston" bheith ar an fógra ar chlé de réir https://t.co/hraSKs0JhV

This must include unnecessary poles and signposts, which obstruct wheelchairs and are a hazard to people with visual impairment.

New cycle track.... hmm.... let's stick a few poles in the way at the narrowest sections.

@ticketsthere @DLTMoments @dlrcc @DLR_Chamber @DigitalDLT @DunLaoghaireBID @CllrPStewart @MaryFayneFG @smytho @EoinKCostello No, Mulgrave Street, but there is also a pole with no sign on it!

[UnnecessarySignPosts @DLR_unnecessary]

An inexplicably pointless pole on Upper George's Street, #DúnLaoghaire's main street. Can @dlrcc rationalise this? And could the "No right turn" sign not have been put on the existing lamp post?

[UnnecessarySignPosts @DLR_unnecessary]

@StillorganNorth @dlrcc @DLR_Chamber @DLTMoments @DigitalDLT @DunLaoghaireBID @CllrPStewart @MaryFayneFG @smytho @EoinKCostello No, the pole with nothing on it.

[UnnecessarySignPosts @DLR_unnecessary]

@dalkeyhead @barrymward @dlrcc @DLR_Chamber @DLTMoments @DigitalDLT @DunLaoghaireBID @CllrPStewart @MaryFayneFG @smytho @EoinKCostello It's the pole with no sign at all on it that I have a problem with.

[UnnecessarySignPosts @DLR_unnecessary]

A purposeless pole on Abbey Road, near the @dublinbusnews stop at Baker's Corner. It once marked the beginning of a short bus lane here, but @dlrcc thought better of it and removed the lane, leaving the signless pole. Can it be removed now @dlrcc?
