Question for people living in Ireland...(particularly in Dublin)?

Question

...have you noticed how "patchy" our roads are? Like when you look at the road, you see squares of concrete overlapping eachother, and it looks really weird...what do you think?

Answer 1

I think what you need is a 'tarmaccing gang',  however most of these are 'over the water' ripping off little old ladies.

Answer 2

ye ive noticed that a lot too

Answer 3

Yes, In some roads but definitely not that d**n M50!! lol

Answer 4

I travel to Dublin often (Im from Edinburgh), and yes it is very noticeable. But not only in Dublin - all around Ireland. When i first started going to Ireland about 17 years ago, all of the roads, including the main highways were very worn and uneven, but they did a whole of work to improve them.

I remember a great sign on the road where roadworks were taking place that said "SLOW". A mile further on there was another sign that read "SLOWER"

I found it very amusing.

Answer 5
