Lanes 1 & 2 of 4 Closed Sign – WK 049 | Temporary Ireland Traffic Sign

The Lanes 1 & 2 of 4 Closed Sign – WK 049 is a temporary road sign designed for four-lane Level 3 roads to notify road users that the two inside lanes (lanes 1 and 2) are closed ahead. This is an essential warning sign for major roadworks, maintenance schemes, or incident management where the safe redirection of high-volume traffic is required.

Engineered in compliance with Chapter 8 of the Irish Traffic Signs Manual, this sign is a visual prompt for drivers to begin merging into the remaining open lanes. With high-contrast lane closure markings and an unmistakable bright orange background, the WK 049 sign ensures maximum visibility in both daytime and nighttime conditions.

It is a vital component in any traffic management strategy involving multi-lane roadways. The sign plays a critical role in minimising disruption, improving flow efficiency, and enhancing road safety at work zones or emergency areas.
