Proposed Traffic Calming Measures

In accordance with the provisions of Section 38 of the Road Traffic Act 1994, Kildare County Council hereby gives notice of its intention of:
W6 Orbital Route Bus Stop Locations, Straffan Road, Maynooth and Maynooth Community College (Moyglare Hall Estate), Maynooth.
As part of the NTA’s BusConnects programme a new orbital bus route is scheduled to commence in Q2 of 2023.
Orbital Routes:
These routes provide connections between suburbs and town centres, without having to travel into the City Centre. They also provide connections to rail, Luas and other bus routes. Enhanced orbital routes will provide major network connectivity benefits for customers and support the introduction of associated spine services.
Stop Locations:
