Experts meet to discuss road safety across Kildare

The County Kildare Road Safety Working Group re-convened for its first quarterly meeting of the year.  

The meeting was held at Kildare County Council headquarters in Naas on Friday morning and was chaired by the Mayor of Kildare, Councillor Sean Power.

Among the key stakeholders of the committee are officials from Kildare County Council, Transport Infrastructure Ireland, Kildare Garda Division, the Road Safety Authority and Fire and Ambulance services from the county.

Roads policing and enforcement, engineering and road safety education and promotions were a key focus on the agenda.

An update on Severe Weather was also provided at the meeting with particular emphasis on last Sunday's snowfall which caught many by surprise.

The committee of the Road Safety Working Group will meet each quarter.
