City council defends ‘disastrous’ traffic system

DUBLIN City Council has defended its controversial new traffic system which was described as a “disaster” yesterday.

meeting is being arranged with officials of the Department of Transport following a claim that they were not fully informed about the new system, which came into operation yesterday.

There is also a question mark over whether the new signs, many of which are in Irish only, comply with the law governing uniformity in signposting, which could lead to their removal.
