Periodic Speed Limit Sign – RUS 045 | Ireland LED Sign

Periodic Speed Limit Sign – RUS 045 | Ireland LED Sign

The Periodic Speed Limit Sign – RUS 045 is an internally illuminated LED traffic sign used to enforce Special Speed Limits introduced under the Road Traffic Act 2004 (as amended). These limits apply during specific times of day or days of the week — typically near schools, in villages, or as part of traffic calming schemes.

Designed in compliance with the Traffic Signs Manual Chapter 5, this sign features a black background with white numerals and a red border. The roundel illuminates only when the limit is active and remains off at all other times, reducing visual clutter and increasing effectiveness.

⚖️ Compliant with Irish Speed Limit Bye-Laws

Local authorities and TII can make Special Speed Limit bye-laws for defined periods using sign RUS 045. The permitted speeds include 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, or 100 km/h, though 30 and 50 km/h are most commonly used near schools.

🔧 Technical Overview

The sign is manufactured with internally illuminated LED technology, housed in a 12g (2.5mm) aluminium panel with a 600 or 750 mm roundel. It can be activated by a timer, manual switch, or remote control, enabling precise on/off scheduling based on local bye-laws.

Available in solar  version, it’s suitable for rural deployments or roadside locations without access to mains power. This sign includes a high-efficiency panel and sealed battery system for uninterrupted operation year-round.
