Things to note about the m50 Motorway

• It is Ireland’s most important road.
• It has a 60km speed limit on parts till 2010.
• Its barrier free, but there is a toll, if you are not registered you pay more, you can pay in a garage ( if not paid before 8pm next day, there is a fine that increases in time stages, which may lead to a court appearence, yikes!
• It is recommended to use the m50 during peak times to avoid driving through the city.
• It is sometimes faster to go through the city then to go on the m50 , especially when you are able to use bus lanes in Dublin city.
• The m1 connects to the m50 and every major road leading out of Dublin, check out the m50 map included below.

The best time to travel on the m50 are outside of peak hours of 7 to 10 am and 4 to 7pm, traffic snarl ups can happen at any time though.
