MOTORISTS are being warned of a new fine alert on one of Ireland’s busiest roads.
The N69 in Limerick will see a new static speed camera come into operation from tomorrow.

The change will kick in from Friday, and will be placed on the road at Ballyhomin, Askeaton.
According to Gardai, the camera will be able to detect motorists driving over the speed limit of 100kph.
Anyone found to be driving faster than the speed limit will be issued with a fixed charge notice.
This carries three penalty points and a €160 fine.
It comes just a week after a speed camera system was put in on the N2 in Meath.
The cameras are static, in place at Ballymagarvey and Cullen (near The Brink), just south of Slane.
Motorists driving above the 100kph speed limit will now be subject to prosecution.
They are located around 8km apart on the N2 – meaning the driver’s average speed between them will be taken into account when deciding if the speed limit has been broken.
This system will use automatic number plate recognition technology to record the date and time that each vehicle passes each camera.
As with the new camera in Limerick, those speeding will be issued with a fixed charge notice.
They will receive three penalty points and a €160 fine.
If the fine isn’t paid within 28 days while on a court conviction, it will increase to €240.
Motorists will then face five penalty points and can be fined up to €1,000.
The static speed camera is different to an average speed camera system as it only measures the speed at one point along the road.
NEW RULES
It comes after a huge new rule was put in place last month that saw speed limits on some rural roads being reduced by 25 per cent.
Drivers who don’t slow could be hit with three penalty points and a fixed charge fine of €160.
The changes for rural local roads will mean that current 80kph limits will be dropped to 60kph.
A sign with a white circle and three diagonal black lines will mean that your speed must change from 80kph to 60kph.
Drivers in urban areas, which include built up parts as well as housing estates and town centres, will also see speed limit changes later this year.
In these urban core spots, speed limits will be reduced to 30kph.
And the speed limit on national secondary roads will also drop from 100kph to 80kph.
