DOUBLE YELLOW lines are to be installed from Cornmarket Street to Hermitage in Ennis.

Residents have been left frustrated with their ongoing struggles to source parking outside their own homes prompting them to make representations to county councillors.

At a sitting of the Ennis Municipal District, Cllr Pat Daly (FF) raised the matter when seeking an update “on the proposed double yellow lines at the left-hand side of Cornmarket on the way to Hermitage”.

Staff in the Ennis MD subsequently made contact with the local authority’s linemarking contractor to add the installation of double yellow lines in Hermitage to the work schedule.

Confirmation that the works would be completed within weeks were made by staff in the Council but residents have been left waiting for over two months.

“It was in the works, it is always welcome to see there is more than one councillor working in the area,” remarked Cllr Antoinette Baker Bashua (FF) when seconding Daly’s motion.
