Clare’s Senator is urging Clare County Council to “think outside the box” and examine any option that could alleviate traffic problems at Blake’s Corner.
Long-term plans to deal with traffic congestion at the notorious traffic blackspot will proceed to planning by the end of the year but locals in Ennistymon have called for a temporary solution in the meantime, such as a traffic warden.
Gardaí have ruled this out for now, citing a lack of resources, and Senator Martin Conway says he doesn’t believe that would solve the problem.
The Ennistymon representative believes that a long term solution is the only way to solve the ongoing problem but he insists all options need to be looked at to reduce tensions there.
