I am requesting a review of the speed limit in the Ballygriffin Area.
I was the victim of a 3 Vehicle accident involving 2 Cars and a truck outside my home not to long ago due to speed. The is a very busy built up area on the main Limerick Road which is home to many very Large businesses ie Roadstone, Dawn Meats, Countrystyle foods, industrial estate , Pub / Cafe and a large amount of houses. This is an extremely dangerous stretch of Road, residents by law are required to pull into the centre of Road In order to turn into there driveways but the speed & Volume of traffic is so high now that we are putting our lives at risk everyday we get into our cars. I fear my journey home everyday and sometimes drive a mile or so past just to turn safely. We can not even think about going for a walk for this very same reason and now people are also using the hard shoulder at high speed " to allow vehicles overtake. This really has to be stopped immediately before someone is seriously hurt. Speed needs to be reduced, clear signage put in place with no overtaking or driving on hard shoulder. Please make this area a priority
