Review finds few roads being fixed in Clare

A review into road maintenance being published today shows that only 1 out of 26 defects on the county's roads have been fixed.

Traffic levels have been growing with the economic recovery but the amount allocated to repairs is the same as it was in the year 2000.

The government review, which refers to 2014, also shows that Transport Infrastructure Ireland, which allocates funding, is lacking essential information on whether money is being effectively spent.
