N18 Cross-over Trial

27 June 2022

The N18 is a national road of strategic national importance, providing a direct connection between County Limerick, County Clare and County Galway while interconnecting all three regions with Shannon International Airport, which is a growing centre of employment and economic activity.

To ensure the ongoing resilience of this corridor, an exercise is planned with the emergency services, An Garda Síochána and Fire Services in collaboration with Clare County Council and Transport Infrastructure Ireland’s road maintenance contractor, Colas Joint Venture. This training exercise will temporarily implement emergency cross-overs and contra flow traffic arrangements required to manage serious incidents on the N18 between Junction 5 Cratloe and Junction 6 Bunratty.

The operation will commence on Wednesday, 29th June, at 8.00pm until 6.00am on Thursday, 30th June.

Drivers will experience temporary traffic layouts during this time under the management of the emergency services. Expect minimal disruption to travel times with an advisory 55kph speed limit in place. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused.

Please contact info@crjv.ie if you have any queries or require additional information.
