One-Lane Section Sign – W101 | Permanent Ireland Traffic Sign
The One-Lane Section Sign – W101 | Permanent Ireland Traffic Sign is designed to alert road users that the carriageway ahead is reduced to a single lane, and appropriate merging behaviour is required. This type of warning is especially important in narrowing roadways, construction zones, or traffic-calming layouts, where bidirectional flow may need to share one lane.
The symbol consists of a single bold black upward arrow on a yellow diamond background, clearly indicating a one-lane traffic scenario. It complies with Chapter 6 of the Traffic Signs Manual (TSM) and is frequently used on rural roads, local detours, and lane-controlled access points.
This sign helps ensure lane discipline, reduced speed, and safer merging, particularly where space is restricted or sightlines are compromised.
Technical Review
Produced to EN12899-1 standards and aligned with TSM 2024 specifications, the W101 sign provides high-visibility messaging to motorists, ensuring timely lane transitions. It reduces the chance of side-swipe collisions and optimises the flow of alternating or merge-in-turn traffic.
Correct placement ensures drivers are well-informed and able to adjust speed and position before reaching the single-lane segment.
