Galway Council Lowers Speed Limits to 30km/h in Town Centers

Galway County Council plans to implement a 30km/h speed limit in town centers, including Athenry, Oranmore, and Claregalway, by March 2027. This follows the successful implementation in Galway City and aligns with the national push for lower limits in urban areas. Councillors must approve new bye-laws this autumn for a nationwide rollout. The focus is on areas with pedestrians and parked cars, prioritizing safety over convenience.
