Consultation on 30km/h speed limit in residential estates

Kildare County Council is undertaking a review of speed limits in residential estates and wishes to engage with interested parties in a non-statutory consultation process.

The review of current speed limits is being undertaken to ensure that housing estate roads are as safe as possible for pedestrians, cyclists and especially children.

In this regard, Residents Associations/Members of the Public are invited to make submissions to the council suggesting residential estates for the possible introduction of a 30km/h speed limit.

Submissions may be made in writing marked ‘30km/h speed limit in housing estates’ to the Senior Executive Officer, Roads, Transportation and Public Safety Department, at Kildare County Council, or by e-mail to roadssubmissions@kildarecoco.ie, to arrive no later than 5pm on Tuesday 24 January 2017.
