Setback For Clare Speed Limit Proposal

Proposals which would have seen a 30 kilometre per hour speed limit rolled out countywide have hit a speed bump.

Clare County Council has initiated a pilot scheme where the lower speed limit was rolled out in around 30 estates, but surveys have shown that it has made no significant difference in speed.

This means the further roll-out of the 30K limit is not included in a review of speed limits in Clare, although a public consultation on the matter will begin in the coming weeks.

Council Engineer Tom Tiernan says the evidence so far shows drivers aren't obeying the reduced limits.
