Speed Limit Southern Cross on to N11 north junction

Blandpebbles

Hi, my car reads speed limit signs as it goes by them. I noticed on southern cross slip road on to N11 north it is signed posted as 100km however if driving north on N11 from Kilmac the speed limit it is not signposted as rising from 80km but remains at this until the 120km just past fassaroe.

With the speed camera at enniskerry constantly, would be interesting to see what it is set to.

Any idea what the actual limit is at southern cross junction?

Heading northbound on the N11 from Kilmac, there's a 100km/h sign just past where the lane splits off to Avoca, here ...

Cheers Alun you are dead right. My car was picking up the 80km sign for the turn off instead of the main speed limit.

Curiosity satisfied

really? how accurate is it considering many of the signs are obscured by trees or covered in moss. The satnav in my car displays the limit, assuming you keep the maps up to date it's pretty accurate.

As you exist Kilcroney (slip road down to N11 North) it reads 80Ks. The next speed sign reads 120Ks just after the Fassaroe exit. I assumed that whole stretch was 80 but per google map maybe I'm wrong. (might explain why I did not get a speeding ticket in my haste and forgot to check if speed trap in force!)

The Google car with the camera was going too fast so causing the blurring of the sign. Wonder did it break the speed limit :D:D:eek:

No it doesn't ...

The limit on the roundabout itself is 80km/h, and there's a 100km/h sign part way down the slip road as per usual. The limit goes up to 120km/h when the N11 becomes the M11, i.e. motorway speed limit.

In fact the 80km/h limit applies on the overbridge too, right up to and including Hill's roundabout, and only decreases to 50km/h as you go past the garage exit on Killarney Rd. and to 60km/h just before the Woodies roundabout if you take the Southern Cross exit.

Very accurate but of course if your eye can read neither will a camera.

It's part of the Nissan Connect system.
