Frustration has been expressed following news that a timeline has still not been established for redesign works on a Clarecastle roundabout.

At this month’s meeting of the Ennis electoral area’s local representatives, Clarecastle Councillor Paul Murphy once again sought clarity on when works will be carried out on Clareabbey roundabout, which has been deemed “highly dangerous” for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists alike.

It’s been confirmed that Clare County Council is working with Transport Infrastructure Ireland on the selection of a preferred design option, and will proceed with the statutory process stage once this is decided and a feasibility report is approved.

Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor Murphy feels the lack of progress on the roundabout in recent years is “extremely disappointing”.
