Speed Limit Reductions Planned For N68 And Three Other Clare Routes

Four heavily trafficked stretches of road in Clare could soon see their speed limits reduced from 100km/h to 80km/h under new plans. The N68 Ennis to Kilrush Road at Darragh, the R445 from the Radisson Hotel from the Limerick Border , the R352 from Ennis to Caherlohan and R458 from Ennis to Ballyline have all been included in Phase 2 of the National Speed Limit Review. Clare County Council is accepting public submissions on the proposals until August 31st. Cathaoirleach of the West Clare Municipal District, Councillor Michael Shannon says the reduction at Darragh would be a welcome start.
