In Belfast, Upper Library Street is now re-named Carrick Hill; the Inner Ring Road is now re-described as Dunbar Link and Great Patrick Street; and the Outer Ring Road is now re-described as Hawthornden Way and Parkway.
In Londonderry, Foyle Bridge and its approach roads are now re-described as Madam’s Bank Road (including Foyle Bridge); Mill Street is now re-named Waterside Link; and the roundabout at the west end of Craigavon Bridge is now named Carlisle Square.
