    The Rule will apply a part-time speed limit of 20 miles per hour to certain roads in Ahoghill, Annaghmore, Annahilt, Armagh, Artigarvan, Aughnacloy, Ballyclare, Ballymena, Ballymoney, Ballyronan, Banbridge, Belfast, Bellanaleck, Bessbrook, Bushmills, Carrickfergus, Castlereagh, Castlewellan, Cookstown, Crossgar, Crumlin, Cullybackey, Derrylin, Downpatrick, Draperstown, Drumaness, Drumsurn, Dungannon, Dungiven, Dunsford, Feeny, Florencecourt, Garvagh, Glengormley, Gulladuff, Hillsborough, Islandmagee, Kilkeel, Killyleagh, Kilrea, Larne, Legacurry, Legamaddy, Lenaderg, Lisburn, Londonderry, Maghaberry, Maguiresbridge, Mallusk, Moira, Newcastle, Newtownards, Omagh, Portadown, Portaferry, Portrush, Randalstown, Strabane, Tandragee, Toome, and Upperlands.
