"L" prefixed roads in RoI

Under the 1993 Roads Act all minor roads in the Republic are numbered on a county by county basis. Each number is prefixed with the letter L. For the best part of two decades most local road numbers however were known only to God and a select handful of selected officials at each county council road department, but in recent years there has been a gradual roll out of directional sign posts displaying the local road number, mainly where they depart from a national or a regional road. Unfortunately, many of these were erected long after Google Street View passed by. Ignored by OSI, Open Street Maps (OSM) are the only maps to show L numbers, but their coverage is very patchy
