Automatic level crossing ahead

Warns of an automatic level crossing ahead where barriers and lights operate automatically when a train approaches.

General Warning Signs

What should you do?

Slow down and be prepared to stop; never zig-zag around half-barriers or cross while the lights are flashing.

How to recognise it

Yellow rectangular plates reading GO MALL Crosaire Comhréidh Uathoibríoch and SLOW Automatic Level Crossing.

Common confusion

Go Mall is Irish for Slow, not Go; the plate tells you to slow down, not to proceed.
