New traffic arrangements will be put in place from today (Tuesday) to facilitate the final phase of works on the Ennis Market Rejuvenation Project.
Construction work is progressing on schedule and will deliver a new covered building for market traders in Ennis town centre by the end of July.
Clare County Council says the traffic arrangements are aimed at maximising vehicular access to the market area whilst works are ongoing. From June 7th, access to and from the Market area will be enabled via Summerhill and Lower Drumbiggle Road while access will be restricted from the Market area junction with Lower Drumbiggle Road to the junction with Barrack Street (local access only).
Signage detailing temporary changes to vehicular access to the Market will be in place while personnel will be present at the junction of O’Connell Street and Barrack Street to assist with traffic management.
The Local Authority is also reminding the public that trading in the area is operating as normal while the Regeneration Project is being completed.
The creative market redevelopment design has been provided by a design team led by P. Coleman & Associates, Consulting Engineers. The construction works are being undertaken on behalf of Clare County Council by O’Brien Builders and Civil Engineering Contracts Ltd., Knockliscrane, Miltown Malbay, Co. Clare.
