A pilot scheme which has seen the first-ever Irish-English road signs installed in the north has been welcomed. The bilingual signage and road markings, covering bus lanes and parking information, have been placed on a stretch of the Falls Road between the Springfield Road and Whiterock Road, with implementation... continuing over the coming weeks. 🎥 Dylan Hegartyshow more

Surprised it's not in arabic given the support in the area for Palestine...

Not long until drivers use the confusing messaging as defence in court!

Pathetic. Like dogs pissing on the street marking territory. How insecure are these bigots.

Just park in and claim you didn't understand 😂🤣 whatever eases their insecurities

One Sinn Féin member will be delighted:

Beidh áthas ar SF!

He as been welcomed by whom? The people on an NHS waiting list, or those waiting for a school place? A total waste of money

More people speak Somali than Irish in west Belfast

Last time I sprayed my name on the road I got in bother 😂

“The North” 😆. The lack of editorial standards is remarkable.

Now just imagine if the money WASTED on this had been given to an @NHS complex on the same road with name of a former Queen. Would that have been better spent ? #FORALL

Falls Road between the Springfield Road and Whiterock Road is not in Donegal so its a false headline

Money well spent that'll help solve the housing crisis, health service waiting lists, fix the roads etc

i’m just happy it’s not African or Arabic street signs, Buíochas le Dia.

Perfect for the 1% of the population that can actually read it

People that can’t fathom not having a Union Jack outside their house getting upset that there’s another form of text on the signs.

Utter waste of money, as our hospitals fall apart. It would laughable, if it wasnt so disgraceful.

This is nothing more than a waste of money!

Is bus spelt the same in Irish 😂😂

Mental behaviour

Great in areas that want it. Maith thu

Given there are more Polish than Gaelic speakers in NI, why aren’t we having signage in polski too?

Really brave putting them in those places

Absolute waste of money!

Sky News Australia has awarded Lynn Boylans video Wally Of The Week

Sinn Fein party members won’t understand it but at least it’s in English too so that should help them out 😂😂😂

United Ireland on its way 🇮🇪

Bus lane and lana bus... There's value for money right there. I expect there'll be a Nobel prize incoming for BCC 🙄🤣

It’ll cause less confusion, I’m not quite sure how those Irish speakers have survived up until now

What a waste of money

They can barely read English on the falls let alone Irish 😂

We really needed better public transport but they spent a fortune on stupid signs?!

Well done Palestine 👌🏻

The people in Wales and Scotland, where it's almost universal,do not think it's a waste of money. They do not feel insecure in the use of their native language even though most of them don't understand it.
