Traffic Congestion in Julianstown

A Public Meeting will be held in the Glenside Hotel on Wednesday, 16th October at 8 pm to discuss the way traffic is increasing in East Meath and South Drogheda.

Some morning soon no one will be able to get on to the M1 or in the evening coming off at Junction 7!

 

The R132 is now the 16th busiest road in Ireland.  People living on this route or on the Beamore/Colpe Roads are finding it extremely difficult to get out on to the road where daily traffic figures are at 22,000 and increasing by 2% annually.  Meath County Council are behind us on this, but they need funding from Central Government.

You can help by getting on to your local TD or Shane Ross, TD at the Department of Transport, Sport and Tourism.  Do you really want to spend hours sitting in traffic?

 

 

 

Stamullen Road Club

Big thanks is due to Seamus and Jack Gilligan and all 36 Volunteers who helped steward at the Great Dublin Bike Ride last Sunday.  The feedback from Cycling Ireland was very pleasing, when they wrote to the club expressing their thanks for the excellent work carried out by the stewards.

Elsewhere last Sunday, Aoibhinn Sharkey was out in the fields at Enniscrone, Co. Sligo where she, once again, was a Podium finisher (2nd) in her category in the cycle-cross event. Well done Aoibhinn.
