A variable speed limit (retaining the existing overall limit of 50) came into operation over the Westlink during the month. According to the official announcement “The implementation of this traffic control system on the A12 Westlink will be the first time that variable mandatory speed limits have been applied to a road here [ie Northern Ireland]. New legislation has been put in place to enable enforcement of the variable speed limits by the police. The speed limits will be recognisable as mandatory as there will be a red ring around the speed limit being displayed on the gantries.” This sign is at the southbound on-slip at the Grosvenor Road.
