As part of the Residents Association efforts to improve road safety within the estate, a Road Safety Week was held from 2nd April until 9th April. During that week motorists using the estate were encouraged to limit their speed to a voluntary 30 kph speed limit. Signage was erected around the estate to remind motorists. We appreciated your co-operation during the week as we attempt to improve road safety for all road users.
Read more news on this subject in the coming days.
Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council will shortly commence a programme to introduce a reduced speed limit of 30 kph within housing estates. As part of this process six estates within the DLRCC area are to partake in a pilot project that will trial the effectiveness of speed alert signage alone as a measure to reduce traffic speed. Watson Estate has been chosen as one of these six estates. During the summer speed alert signs will be introduced into the estate which will both alert drivers to the speed they are travelling at while at the same time recording average traffic speeds for a period of six months. These records will then determine if physical traffic calming measures will be required within the estate to force traffic to slow down.
