Lanes 2 & 3 of 3 Closed Sign – WK 044 | Temporary Ireland Traffic Sign

Lanes 2 & 3 of 3 Closed Sign – WK 044 | Temporary Ireland Traffic Sign

The WK 044 – Lanes 2 & 3 of 3 Closed Sign is a vital temporary road sign used to communicate that lanes 2 and 3 (the centre and rightmost lanes) of a three-lane Level 3 road are closed ahead. Specifically designed for use on motorways and high-speed dual carriageways, this sign is essential for ensuring that road users are alerted well in advance of the required lane reductions.

Clear and direct, the WK 044 sign helps avoid late merging and confusion by illustrating that only the leftmost lane remains open. This improves flow and enhances safety in roadworks or emergency closure situations on busy multi-lane roads. It is fully compliant with Chapter 8 of the Irish Traffic Signs Manual (TSM) and widely used in Temporary Traffic Management Plans (TTMPs).
