A SINN Féin TD has called for urgent action over a controversial pilot cycle lane project in south Kildare, the R448 ‘Road to Nowhere’, and brought attention to the road safety audit which was leaked over the weekend.

“We didn’t show fear. We controlled our reactions and tried not to escalate anything,” he said.

There has been a lot of frustration locally towards the project, with dozens of incidents reported

Well done to all involved

A KILDARE resident’s Tesla was wrote off when it struck an unmarked concrete block verge installed as part of ongoing road works on the R448 between Moone and Timolin as part of the pilot cycleway.

“There’s 164 dialects in that region and I can speak a bit of the language.”

“We pray there will not be a fatal incident" 

TRANSPORT minister Darragh O’Brien has confirmed that the controversial works on the R448 between Moone and Timolin form part of a national pilot project to test new cycling infrastructure designs.

"The farmers don’t want it, the truckers don’t want it and the locals don’t want it."

The Association of Farm and Forestry Contractors released a statement on the project that began works a few weeks back

CONSTRUCTION on a National Cycle Network (NCN) pilot project is currently underway in south Kildare but has drawn criticism from local residents who say the scheme lacks connectivity, is a waste of public money, with poor consultation.

There were three complainants in the original case

WORK is now underway on the National Cycle Network (NCN) pilot project along the R448 in south Kildare between Moone and Timolin with Kildare County Council confirming that contractor Glas Civil Engineering is currently mobilising on site.

The fundraising event was being held in aid of five community charities, and the two local churches.

Repairs are expected to be completed by tomorrow afternoon
