Update on the implementation of Jakes Law in the KildareNewbridge Municipal District

My second question at this month’s (18th April) Municipal District meeting, ‘Can the council provide an update on the implementation of Jakes Law in the KildareNewbridge Municipal District including a list of estates that applied for Jakes Law signage in the first two phases and the council’s timeline for the roll out of the scheme across all estates?

Here is the report issued by ;Ms E Wright, Senior Executive Officer, Roads Transportation and Public Safety Section:  The following estates submissions were received under Phase 1 of Jake’s Law:

  •  Liffey Hall (The Walk, The Court, The Heath, The Avenue and The Downs)
  • Standhouse Lawns Estate
  • Pomeroy Park Estate

The signage is now in place in these estates. The following estates applied for signage to be installed under Phase 2 of Jake’s Law.

  • College Park
  • The Priory
  • Wellesley Manor
  • Pairc Mhuire
  • The Oaks
  • The Great Southern
  • Preston Brook

These estates will be assessed for signage as part of the Countywide Speed Limit Review which has commenced. The signage will be installed as part of this programme.
