Signs leave drivers in twilight zone

APTLY named the “inner and outer orbital routes,” the new signs system for Dublin continued to leave most people in the twilight zone on its second day in operation yesterday.

Irate tourists, who find the national road signs system bewildering, believe the new signs have only made a complicated system worse.

Chicago-born Theresa Plunkett said she had been going to Dublin on holidays for several years but found the new signs completely baffling. She was totally confused by the different colouring used in the signs - and had no idea where to go to secure an information leaflet.
