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.
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 South Eastern Motorway section, a radial route, was oringinally meant to be part of the M11.

 Westlink M7 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Westlink M7, formerly named the Western Sydney Orbital, is one of Sydney's urban motorways and is a part of Sydney Metroad 7 and the Sydney Orbital Motorway network.
Westlink M7 was the first Sydney motorway to be marked with the alphanumeric M7 rectangular shield rather than the hexagonal Metroad shield.
It is built as a fully tolled gateless motorway employing fully electronic payment and is expected to reduce transit time across the western suburbs by 1 hour at least.

The building of the motorway from the capital to Kiskunfélegyháza in the southeast of Hungary (110 kilometres) began in March 1996, and was completed in June 1998.
The motorway tolls introduced on the newly built concession motorways were, for the most part, too high for Hungarian drivers, but were high by international standards too.
In the end, the National Motorway Rt., which is responsible for motorway-building schemes, handed over the renovated, two-lane, 90-kilometre section of the M7 motorway from Budapest to Lake Balaton at the end of 2001.

The section of the motorway bypassing Naas, an 8km (5 miles) stretch (see thumbnail), was the first section of motorway to open in the Republic of Ireland in 1983.
While a motorway reservation still exists, it is now unlikely to be built, having being superseded by the widening of the N7 between Newlands Cross and Naas to three lanes and the grade separation of this section.
The next sections of the existing N7 route due to be bypassed and replaced by motorway is a section of route south of Portlaoise (a joint route project with the M8 diverging half-way along is planned).

The section of the motorway bypassing Naas, an 8 kilometre stretch, was the first section of motorway to open in the Republic of Ireland in 1983.
The next sections of the N7 due to be bypassed and replaced by motorway are the route from Limerick to Nenagh, and a section of route south of Portlaoise (a joint route project with the M8 diverging half-way along is planned).
The former project is the subject of considerable local controversy, with the main detractions being the prospect of it being tolled, and/or the necessity for a full motorway along that route.

 History - Belfast Urban Motorway - Northern Ireland Roads Site
The Belfast Urban Motorway was the name given to an ambitious scheme to build a continuous free-flow motorway around the city centre.
The motorway heads south passing straight through the Mountpottinger area before turning with the Lagan, touching the northern end of Ormeau Park and crossing the Lagan near the former Gasworks.
In any case, public opposition to large numbers of motorways with acres of demolition and mazes of concrete flyovers was growing all the time as the public saw the detrimental impact of similar schemes in England.

Minister Brennan said the motorway to the South would be a reality within a few years because as of now every kilometre had or was being addressed.
The motorway to the South would be approximately 267km in length and of that 67km was now complete, 25km was under construction and due for completion late 2004/early 2005, and 175km was advancing through the planning process.
When completed, the motorway scheme will by-pass Mountrath and Borris-in-Ossory on the N7 and Abbeyleix, Durrow and Cullahill on the N8 and will significantly reduce journey times, improve the quality of life and the environment in the towns by-passed, enhance access to the region and lead to a reduction of road accidents and deaths.

Construction was commenced towards the end of 1993 and the motorway opened to traffic in May 1997 with a $2.50 toll at the North Ryde plaza.
Since then, the Westlink M7 motorway has been constructed (opened 16 December 2005), extending the motorway conditions along the former Castlereagh Freeway (F2) reservation to Richmond Road at Oakhurst, as well as south to near Liverpool.
The construction of this particular section of the motorway (Old Windsor Rd to Richmond Rd) was referred to in the May 1985 regarding road funding and planning in western Sydney, thus it is some late justice that the motorway was eventually constructed 20 years later.
