The M50 motorway is a motorway in the Republic of Ireland.
The M50 is a four-lane motorway, though auxiliary/weaving lanes are provided at several junctions.
The upgrade project also includes widening the surrounding motorway to six lanes from the M1 to Sandyford with the extra driving lanes replacing the existing wide grass-covered median.

The M50 motorway (''M50 Mótarbhealach'' in Irish) is a motorway and National Primary Route in the Republic of Ireland running in a C-shaped ring around the northern, western and southern sides of the capital city, Dublin.
Work commenced in early 2006 on upgrading the earlier sections of motorway, with the current grade-separated signal-controlled roundabout interchanges to be replaced with free-flowing "spaghetti junctions", and much of the road to be widened to three lanes in each direction.
The M50 was originally planned to divert traffic travelling through on National Primary Routes away from the city (a full bypass of Dublin).

The final leg of Dublin's M50 motorway between Ballinteer and Shankill is to be built and opened without the controversial Carrickmines interchange.
The extension of the motorway to the Leopardstown Road interchange would bring it within a mile of the N11 route at White's Cross and the construction of a new road, the Drummartin link from the M50 to Goatstown, would ease traffic in the vicinity of the Sandyford Industrial Estate.
However, conservationists opposed to the motorway junction which crosses the archaeological remains of the medieval Carrickmines Castle said yesterday that such a resolution was "extremely unlikely".

 M50 motorway (Ireland) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The M50 motorway is a motorway and National Primary Route (N50) in the Republic of Ireland running in a C-shaped ring around the north-eastern, northern, western and southern sides of the capital city, Dublin.
The completed (to the original plans) M50 motorway opened on 30 June 2005, although the Dublin Port Tunnel, opened 20 December 2006 also forms part of the route.
The non-motorway ring-road continuing eastward from Junction 3 is not the N50 (as this follows the M50 route south), but rather a separate National Primary Route, the N32.
