Side Road on Right Sign – WK 051 | Temporary Ireland Traffic Sign

Side Road on Right Sign – WK 051

The Side Road on Right Sign – WK 051 is a critical component of temporary road traffic management on work zones and diversion routes. Specifically designed for use where roadworks create a new or altered junction, this sign alerts drivers that a side road joins from the right ahead.

This visual warning helps prevent last-minute decisions and reduces collision risks where traffic merges or diverges unexpectedly. Deployed on Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 roads, it’s used where a temporary T-junction or spur has been formed as part of the work zone traffic layout.

Manufactured in accordance with Chapter 8 of the Irish Traffic Signs Manual, this sign meets all national and EU requirements for visibility, durability, and road user clarity. Its highly visible orange background ensures drivers can immediately associate the sign with temporary conditions, while its simple, intuitive symbol communicates the change well in advance of the junction.

Whether the side road provides access for construction vehicles, emergency detours, or public diversions, the WK 051 sign is essential for clear and consistent driver guidance.
