in Dublin, Republic of Ireland, there was a motion to ask Northern Ireland to
introduce the metric system for all traffic signs. (Scroll down to the bottom
of the article.)
Delegates also voted for the creation of an all Ireland body to standardise
speed limits and road traffic signs.
During the session on the environment, delegates also voted to call on the
North’s authorities to introduce the metric system “for all traffic and related
road signage to bring it in line with the rest of the island”.
Does anyone know if this is one of the areas where Northern Ireland has
freedom to make its own laws?
