Naas Town: Speed camera Signs

whowantstwoknow

Hi,

unless I've been asleep, are my days of racing through the town :rolleyes: about to come at an end?

Noticed them on the newbridge & sallins roads at least...

Yes I noticed these too. Can't see where they would park a speed van in the main street and for that I don't think anyone would get up enough speed to be caught! There are to many traffic lights, you couldn't get a straight run from one end of town to the other!

There have been some put up in Sallins too.

There's a few after cropping up! There's one across from des Kelly's in sallins and another outside McCarthys in Clane!

Also a new one popped up just outside of Celbridge heading to the Barberstown Cross. That section from just before the school, through the windy section until you are heading up the hill to the roundabout is blanketed in that zone now.

Must be a 'let's put new zones in' mojo going on at the minute.

370 new speed detection zones are being created around the country and about 50 previous ones are being deleted. (Irish Times May 2015)

The zones were created in conjunction with local authorities, gardai and with submissions from the public.

I would guess that signposting is being erected before the zones are officially announced.

And whilst it would be difficult to drive over the speed limit from 9am to 6pm in Naas, there are quite a few maniacs later in the evenings and at 8am in the mornings.

The stretch from the Hyundai garage to the race course is a killer spot....60 zone but easily you can do 80'ish there without noticing...usually a van there most evenings of the week around 9-10pm especially in winter

There's also new signs gone up recently on the Maynooth - Leixlip Road by Pike's Bridge/Carton House and on the Celbridge Interchange.

Gardai already do.

They've been on the old N4 before it was a go safe zone.
