Unauthorised Signs, Caravans, Vehicles on Public Roads
It is an offence to place or retain a temporary
dwelling on a national road, motorway, busway or protected road including the
margins, kerbs, lay-bys and hard shoulders of the road. The road authority may
arrange for the removal and storage of such vehicles and serve a notice on the
owner stating where the temporary dwelling may be recovered within one month.
The use of unauthorised signs, unauthorised caravans or vehicles for
advertising the sale of goods or the provision of services on public roads is
also prohibited. The Council and the Gardai are empowered to remove these
structures and serve a notice on the owner stating where the structure may be
recovered within one month. A local authority is entitled to recover expenses
incurred in preventing and removing obstructions on a public road under its
management.
