SIGNAGE AND SPEED RAMPS have been sought for the school road in Lahinch in response to “very unsafe” conditions.

Addition of safety signage, speed ramps or rumble strips were sought by Cllr Shane Talty (FF) for the school road in Lahinch “at either side of the National School in the interest of safety”. His proposal before a recent sitting of the West Clare MD was seconded by Cllr Joe Killeen (FF).

Enda MacNamara, senior executive engineer in the West Clare Municipal District confirmed that “possible traffic calming measures” for School Rd in Lahinch would be reviewed.

“There is a congregation of traffic and kids running around the place, it is very unsafe,” Cllr Talty commented. He added, “I look forward to work hopefully taking place”.
