It’s claimed the people of Lahinch must be willing to accept a loss of parking spaces to make the town safer.

Following concerns from residents about road safety in the North Clare surfing hotspot, local Councillor Liam Grant has called for designs to be drawn up for a pedestrian crossing on the Main Street and for them to be put out for public consultation.

The West Clare Municipal District has confirmed it will begin to investigate the feasibility of a pedestrian crossing on the Main Street and will liaise with Transport Infrastructure Ireland on the matter.

 

Lahinch Green Party Councillor Grant says although parking spaces may be lost, it’ll ultimately be for the greater good.
