The were talking about it on Ray D'Arcy on Monday as he'd spotted while he was here. I think the consensus was that someone had coloured in the outline of a heart on the light with a marker, either for the laugh or as some sort of little sign post to lead guests to a wedding.

Maybe they are starting to breed and pretty soon we will have
‘love heart’ red lights to admire at all the old roundabouts while we while away the hours
sitting in traffic waiting for them to turn green.

Here's the one on Tuam near the Polish Foodland shop.

Here's one outside AIB at the Liosban Business Park which I think is pretty close to the one posted above!

The lights are really upset at the amount of venom directed at them in the pro-roundabout campaign, and are trying to tell us that they love us, even if we don't love them.

Either the Lights are rising up against GCC or

My Bets on the lights......

We have "intelligent" traffic lights, so why not "emotional" ones?

I was stuck behind a bus on way out to briarhill shopping center last week and I noticed that the brake light on the bus rear was also heart shaped!...anyone at all know why these are about the city?

I'd say someone is doing it with a marker.

Creative and uplifting vandalism.

I dig it!

i think this is a terrible idea, the slightest interference with traffic lights shouldn't be commended

Stop the lights and get stoned

SMOKING spliffs and cruising the cosmos is not what the many visitors to the heritage haven of Westport expect during their winter breaks. But, hey man, you would forgive those dudes who hit town early last week for thinking they had inadvertently landed in the hometown of some famous South American drug lord.
Not only were the traffic lights decorated with symbols of the marijuana leaf but rather strange graffiti – believed to symbolise the leaf – was spotted also by our undercover photographer who naturally assured us he has never inhaled any illegal substance, even while in the pursuit of breaking news stories.
Local sleuth, Inspector Joe McKenna also confirmed to The Mayo News yesterday that he was aware of the symbols on the traffic lights.
“I saw the traffic lights and the symbols have since been removed.
I believe that heart signs appeared around the same time on traffic lights in Galway city. The only concern we had was that they might distract motorists, ” Insp McKenna said.
He assured The Mayo News that gardaí were not worried that the signs or the graffiti were the work of serious drug pushers.
“I believe this was simply a prank and there is no need for anyone to be concerned,” Insp McKenna said.
Phew! But what a buzz.

Somebody should do that at Richardsons.

If they decide to do it at Garveys they are in for a surprise.
