“We need lower speed limits across our road network, plus better design, more segregation and more enforcement” Well said @ciarancannon
Every 48 hours someone dies on Irish roads – not because they failed, but because we did. Writing in the @Independent_ie today on behalf of our 26,000 @CyclingIreland members and all vulnerable road users. We need to rethink road safety in Ireland. m.independent.ie/opinion/com…

Key to reducing #congestion in #galwaycitycentre is reducing cars. Each full train from #mayo #sligo #tuam will remove 275 cars which = 1.2 acres of parking space #westernrailcorridor #eyresquare #latinquarter @GalwayChamber @GalwayIntArts @galwaytourism @GalwayCycling

10,000 journeys per day were made by rail in County Galway in 2024. This is a massive increase of 50% on 2022 figures as people beat daily #congestion #galwaycity #eyresquare #greendeal #modalshift #westernrailcorridor @GalwayCycling @IrishRail @GalwayChamber

Irish car bonnets are growing taller by half a centimetre each year, with some SUVs so high that a four-year-old child standing directly in front is invisible to the driver. Today, campaigners are calling for legislation to stem the upward trend. jrnl.ie/6728706

The Galway Limerick service is at capacity. It now takes the equivalent of up to 2000 car journeys off the road daily. This reduces #congestion #emissions #traffic & improves #roadsafety #westernrailcorridor @ManchanMagan @limerick_now @CycleGort @GalwayCycling @IrishEnvNet
