Traffic Management Arrangements - Tipperary

Roolagh Junction, Co Tipperary

Motorists and pedestrians are advised to proceed with caution due to long-term Traffic Management arrangements at Roolagh Junction, Co. Tipperary to facilitate the construction of the R494 (Ballina to Birdhill) and also the R496 arm of the proposed Roolagh Roundabout.

As Schools return after the Mid-Term Break delays may be experienced, especially at peak times in the run up to Christmas, we urge motorists to obey all Traffic Management arrangements in place. Please be advised that Tipperary County Council will be carrying out roadworks during the planned R496 3- week closure (see Notice 1A below). The extent of these works is from Roolagh Junction down to Goosers Restaurant. Tipperary County Council planned works comprise; road surfacing, improved pedestrian facilities and public lighting. These works have been synchronized with the Main Project works to minimize disruption and inconvenience. There will be traffic management coordination between Sisk and Tipperary County Council during daytime normal working hours to maintain traffic flow through the respective work zones.

Clare County Council greatly appreciates the ongoing support and co-operation from all members of the public who are impacted by the works. We acknowledge and apologise for any inconvenience caused and would like to assure you that we are endeavouring to minimise disruption and delays.
