Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
General Scheme of Road Traffic Bill 2015: Discussion
2:30 pm
Mr. Fintan Towey:
It is a matter on which we can seek further advice.
On the issue of speed limits and the proposed provision for a new speed limit of 20 km/h, I can confirm that it will be the responsibility of the local authority to determine the circumstances in which that type of limit can be imposed. I know that Senator Brennan has concerns in relation to this issue. Trying to bring about change in driver behaviour is a challenge we are constantly fighting to improve.
