Julianstown

Julianstown traffic continues to rise

The NRA recently yet again reported record traffic volumes in Julianstown. The traffic volumes for April through June were recently published showing that on average 21000 vehicles per day are using Julianstown. Yet again these are record numbers since the M1 opened. In reality the traffic volume in Julianstown has dropped very little since the motor way opened.

This quoted volumes are only an average and on weekdays the numbers are exceeding 22000. Added to this is the fact that there are plans in preparation for thousands of houses in the South Drogheda and Laytown areas and outlook is bleak

This data is released in the week that Mullingar got a new bypass to cater for less than 5000 vehicles to much media fanfare and ministerial cutting of tape.
