New road safety markings between Cork and Mallow ‘are extremely dangerous’

The markings have been put down on the orders of TII (Transport Infrastructure Ireland) on the main Cork-Mallow road (N20) and are particularly dangerous on the 2+1 sections.

A 2+1 road is a specific category of three-lane road, featuring two lanes in one direction and one lane in the other, alternating every few kilometres, and separated, usually with a steel cable barrier. TII controls all national primary and secondary roads.
