Ennis Councillors Express Frustration Over Lack Of Progress At Clareabbey Roundabout

Ennis Councillors Express Frustration Over Lack Of Progress At Clareabbey RoundaboutNuevo10 min

As you've been hearing in our news, a temporary traffic management system is set to be trialed at the Clareabbey Roundabout.

At this month's meeting of Ennis MD, frustrations were raised at the lack of progress on road safety measures along the route, with councillors stating motions relating to road safety have been put before the municipal district for almost two decades.

As the route falls under the National Route Network it falls into the remit of Transport Infrastructure Ireland rather than Clare County Council.

Following a number of concerns with the Limerick Road Active Travel Scheme, Transport Infrastructure Ireland carried out further traffic surveys and microsimulation modelling to assess the operation of alternative layouts

After the meeting, Clare FM's Darragh O'Grady spoke to Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor Paul Murphy who began by outlining issues with the lack of action from TII on the matter.
