November 2008 – Maynooth Traffic Flow raised with Kildare Co Co

Deputy Aine Brady has made representations to Kildare Co Co to have the traffic management systems analysed with a view to seeking an improvement to the flow of traffic through Maynooth.

'Since the turning on of extra traffic lights on the Straffan road, I did feel that the traffic flow had slowed and this was raised with me by many residents in Maynooth.' stated Deputy Brady.

'Following my representations, the council has assured me that signalised junctions are included on the scoot traffic system and are currently under extensive monitoring via CCTV and Loops. Apparently, there were some problems caused by the ESB excavating at the Celbridge / Straffan Road Junction which destroyed some loops and these will be replaced next week.'

'I have been assured that significant resources are being allocated to the Maynooth area to minimise the timescale between the start-up and when the system is working in a satisfactory manner.' concluded Deputy Brady.
