MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, April 10, 2017

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor F. Timmons

To ask for an update report on new agreed Speed Limit signs and a timeframe when this will be completed and what the final cost will be ?

REPLY:

Since the adoption of the New Speed Limit Byelaws, the installation of New Signage has commenced and is on going.  The anticipated date for the new Byelaws to become effective is the 8th May.  The cost of purchase and installation of the required signage will be up to €250,000.  This has increased due to a recent decision to install electronic signage to alert motorists to the Variable Speed Limits in the vicinity of Schools.

Please note the above costs do not include costs associated with speed limit changes on National Routes which is a matter for TII.
