Clare Aontú Rep Calls For Expansion Of Roads Policing To Curb Road Fatalities

Clare's Aontú representative is calling for an expansion of Clare's roads policing unit to help curb road fatalities in the county.

It comes as new RSA statistics show four road deaths were recorded in Clare in 2025, the same number recorded in 2026.

Meanwhile, the number of roads policing Gardaí currently tasked to this county was 645 as of March of this year, down from 1,046 in 2009.

Chair of the Safer Clare Campaign, June Dillon, says a greater Garda presence would help reduce road deaths in the county.
