Episode Details

Clare County Council claims it's "working with" Transport Infrastructure Ireland to implement a speed limit reduction on a West Clare national secondary road. Fianna Fáil Councillor Michael Shannon is calling for the speed limit to be reduced from 80 to 60 kilometres per hour at Darragh on the N68 amid safety concerns. The local authority needs written consent from TII to alter speed limits on national secondary roads but it's told Councillor Shannon it's "working with TII, the Members and the local community to deliver a safety scheme at this location". The Quilty representative claims Clare isn't getting its fair share of roads funding.
