While the provision of traffic signs on roads is a matter for the relevant road authority, signs and signage on lands adjacent to roads would be covered under the Planning and Development Act 2000 as amended and are therefore a matter for individual Planning Authorities. Any amendments to planning legislation would be a matter for the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government.
