With Ireland going over to kilometres per hour, am I correct in assuming that this is just the Republic? Is Northern Ireland, as part of the UK, remaining in miles per hour, the same as Great Britain? If so, you will get a situation the same as the Canada-USA border.

BTW distance signs have already been metric for years now, while they remained in miles on the North
