Notification of Planned Mobility Improvement Works to the City Centre Road Network

Galway City Council wish to notify you of the following planned works to implement mobility improvements in the City Centre. The traffic management changes involve reversing the existing traffic flow direction along the following streets;

· Abbeygate Street Lower (between Merchants Road and Middle Street)

· Cross Street (Upper and Lower)

· Flood Street

· Middle Street

In conjunction with the successful measures implemented along Cross Street in 2020, the changes are expected to significantly reduce the volume of vehicular traffic along Middle Street and the adjoining sections of Abbeygate Street Lower and Cross Street Lower. In turn, this will support safer pedestrian and cyclist access, with more space to facilitate social distancing and support local businesses.

The measures are scheduled to be introduced week commencing 8th February 2021.
