Calls For Pedestrian Crossings At Maid Of Erin Roundabout

Calls have been made for the immediate installation of pedestrian crossings at the Maid Of Erin Roundabout in Ennis. A survey carried out by Ennis Community College found that over 500,000 cars and heavy goods vehicles traversed the junction between January and April alone. In addition to providing access points to the Lahinch Road, Gort Road & the town centre, a large cohort of primary and second level students navigate the route on a daily basis. Fine Gael Councillor, Mary Howard believes traffic calming infrastructure is urgently required to prevent a serious incident.
