Call for speed limits suggestions

Kilcullen people have been asked to send submissions on speed limits in the area to Cllr Billy Hillis.

All speed limits are now being reviewed, and although a submission has been made since earlier this year by Kilcullen Community Action, Cllr Hillis has asked that it be copied directly to him.

"Any changes have to be voted on by the council members," he said this week, adding that there are many instances of inappropriate speed limits across the county.

"Some town limits, for example, are set much too far outside the towns," he said. "It means that many motorists are left wondering whether they are still in a speed limited area."
