Mini-roundabout Ahead Sign – W044 | Permanent Ireland Traffic Sign
The Mini-roundabout Ahead Sign – W044 | Permanent Ireland Traffic Sign is a key warning sign that alerts drivers of an approaching mini-roundabout. These compact roundabouts feature a small central island, requiring vehicles to navigate with precision and caution, especially in tight urban or residential areas.
The W044 sign displays a black circular symbol of three curved arrows surrounding a central dot, placed on a yellow diamond background to ensure high visibility. According to Chapter 6 of the Traffic Signs Manual (TSM), this sign is crucial for slowing traffic and improving safety at intersections where a mini-roundabout layout may not be immediately obvious, particularly in areas with limited visibility or high pedestrian activity.
