M50 motorists baffled by three different speed limits within a 20 metre radius

Motorists in Dublin have been left baffled by three different speed limits marked on the road with 20 metres of each other on the M50.

One person posted a picture on Reddit of the slip road section where the N4 merges onto the M50 going northbound, near Liffey Valley. The image shows a 30km/h speed limit road sign, followed by a 100km/h sign and then an electric sign with 60km/h displayed on it - all within close proximity.

The electric sign showing 60km/h is a new variable speed limit on the M50 that allows operators to change the speed limit to help traffic flow more smoothly. The picture shows that the 100km/h speed has been temporarily reduced to 60km/h.
