QUESTION NO. 9

QUESTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

"To ask the Manager for an update on the operation of the traffic restrictions on the Newcastle/Adamstown Road and the effect on traffic flow of the adjustment to the traffic lights the N4 interchange?"

REPLY:

Late in 2013 alterations were made to the signals. The purpose of the alterations was to try to increase the flow from theNewcastle Road including the right-turn onto the N4 without causing increased delays to other traffic.

ANPR cameras were installed on the Newcastle Road. These measure the journey times from the Pedestrian crossing at Adamstown to the entry onto the bridge. The journey times observed during the morning peak are less than those previously reported.
