Trunk Roads in Ireland
Encyclopedia
Ireland
has an extensive network of public roads which connect all parts of the country with each other. Roads in Ireland
are currently classified as motorways
, National Primary routes
, National secondary routes
, Regional road
s and Local roads
. The introduction of this classification system began in 1977.
Prior to this, Ireland
had a different road classification and numbering system. Roads fell into three categories: T (Trunk Roads), L (Link Roads) and unclassified roads. The origins of this system lie in pre-independence legislation: the preliminary section of Statutory Instrument S.I. No. 55/1926 — Road Signs and Traffic Signals Regulations, 1926 states that the Ministry of Transport Act, 1919 gave the Minister for Local Government and Public Health the power to assign a "route letter and number" to a road, while Section 6.4 of Part I of the Regulations specifies the positioning of the "route letter and the number of the road" on directional signs. A reference in the Statutory Instrument to the "classification of roads as a 'Trunk' or 'Link' Road" indicates that a system of route classification and numbering was envisaged in the 1920s. However, at present, there is no information about when the Trunk and Link road-numbering system was actually introduced on signposts. Even though legal authority for the erection of directional signposts was given to local councils, the Automobile Association of Ireland
began an extensive road signposting scheme in 1938 which included comprehensive signposting of routes from Belfast, Cork and Dublin.
Evidence that the Trunk Road and Link Road classification and numbering system had been well established by the 1950s is found in Statutory Instrument S.I. No. 284/1956 — Traffic Signs Regulations, 1956 which contains examples of several directional signs. The first and second examples show the T8 as the route to Wexford and Rosslare. In addition, Esso
road-maps of Ireland from the 1950s show the Trunk and Link road network. Despite its long-standing use, the original Trunk and Link road system was never legislated for and the routes of Trunk Roads and Link Roads were never formally designated by law.
This current system of road classification and numbering has its origins in the late 1960s: the Minister for Local Government, Kevin Boland
, announced on 23 July 1969 that a national road network would be formed. In 1974, the Local Government (Roads and Motorways) Act came into effect. It allowed for designation of roads as motorways or national roads. National roads were first designated by Statutory Instrument S.I. No. 164/1977 on 1 June 1977. Twenty-five National Primary routes (N1-N25) and thirty-three National Secondary routes (N51-N83) were initially designated.
The changeover to the new system was gradual: a route planning map of Ireland from the late 1970s (or early 1980s), divided into a northern section and a southern section, shows a mixture of Trunk Road, Link Road and National route numbers.
Major roads were marked with "T" for Trunk Road
, less important roads were marked with "L" for Link Road.
Trunk Roads connected major towns to each other while passing through smaller towns and villages.
Several trunk routes were designed to connect towns in different regions of Ireland (for example, the T41 from Enfield
to Kilrush
, via Tullamore
, Portumna
, Scariff and Ennis
) while other roads (for example, the T66 Ring of Kerry
route) were designated scenic route
s.
Link Roads connected smaller towns and villages to each other and to the Trunk Road network.
There were eighty-four Trunk Roads in total, numbered from T1 to T77 consecutively (plus T4a, T11a, T12a, T21a, T28a, T50a and T72a). Roads with the 'a' suffix branched off roads with the same number. For example, the T4a branched off the T4 at Ballinasloe in Co. Galway and the T12a branched off the T12 to serve Cobh
in Co. Cork.
The first nine Trunk Roads (T1, T2, T3, T4, T4a, T5, T6, T7, T8) radiated out from Dublin (with the T8 branching off the T7 at Enniscorthy
) and followed an anti-clockwise pattern. This pattern was similar to the existing anti-clockwise pattern which the National routes and motorways radiating out of Dublin now follow. The pattern was interrupted by the T35 (Dublin-Cavan
-Donegal
route) which came between the T2 and the T3 and the T42 (now N81), T43 and T44 which came between the T5 (T6) and the T7 routes.
Unlike the present system, where each road (whether N- or R-) has a unique number, under the Trunk and Link Road system, Link Roads were numbered separately beginning with L1. These L (for Link Road) numbers are not related to the current Lxxxx numbers for Local Roads.
Confusingly, some old road signs
still show the former (now obsolete) Trunk and Link road-numbers.
Trunk Roads were broadly equivalent to the present National routes, and Link Roads to the present Regional roads. Most of the National Primary and National Secondary routes had been Trunk Roads and generally they followed the routes of these Trunk Roads, albeit with a different numbering system. However, some National Primary and Secondary routes also incorporated Link Roads and unclassified roads into their routes. After the introduction of the new road numbering system, some Trunk Roads (either in whole or in part) were downgraded to Regional roads, effectively 'de-trunked'Trunk road#De-trunking: Ireland.
A notable feature of the former system was multiplexing
(or concurrency), where a section of road was designated by two or more route numbers. Examples of multiplexes include the T7/T12 multiplex between New Ross
and Waterford
, the T6/T13 multiplex between Cahir
and Kilheffernan (east of Clonmel
), the T28/T36 multiplex between Newcastlewest and Abbeyfeale
and the short T19/T21 multiplex between Thurles
and Toor. The road between Cavan
, Butlersbridge
, Cloverhill and the border with Northern Ireland (near Wattle Bridge in Co. Fermanagh) was a triple multiplex of the T10, T15 and T35 routes.
Three routes (T15, T22, T35) had sections which were disconnected from the rest of the route by roads which crossed through Northern Ireland
. These routes lost their Trunk Road designations through Northern Ireland, regaining them on exiting Northern Ireland. The T15 crossed the border
several times between Cavan and Clones
, alternating between the T15 and the A3
designations.
Multiplex sections (for example, New Ross-Waterford (multiplex with T12)) are shown in italics. Sections of routes through Northern Ireland (with different designations) are shown in bold (for example, border-A37-Cullaville-A37-border or border-(to Belfast via A1)).
