The Atlas features easy-to-read information on each motorway with all exits and tolls clearly marked.
For the first time an official map will show dangerous collision zones and the location of speed cameras and zones as well as giving road safety information on driver fatigue, speed control and alcohol limits.
Ms Geraldine Ruane, Chief Executive, OSi, said: “We have launched this new Road Atlas to coincide with the year in which all the main interurban motorways will open. The main road network has been transformed beyond recognition in recent years and maps and Sat Navs need major updating.
“The new Road Atlas contains details of the entire new motorways network as well as a range of important road safety information. We believe the Atlas will be a vital aid to motorists and will help to encourage responsible driving. We in OSi are delighted to be able to play its part in this important public education programme and to have been assisted by the RSA.
“OSi is particularly delighted that it is published in partnership with our colleagues, Ordnance Survey Northern Ireland, which means it is the most comprehensive road map of the whole island”.
Mr Gay Byrne, Chairman, Road Safety Authority, said: “The Road Safety Authority is extremely happy to partner with the Ordnance Survey in the publication of the official Road Atlas of Ireland in 2010. We see it as an ideal way to get road safety messages directly into the hands of road users”.
The official Road Atlas of Ireland is an essential publication for all road users, tourists and professional drivers in Ireland and can be purchased from OSi offices, agents and bookshops throughout the country.
