Traffic and Roadworks Update: Plan Ahead for August
Motorists travelling through Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County are strongly advised to plan their journeys carefully as significant road closures and traffic management measures remain in place. This weekly update highlights key disruptions expected between Saturday, 8 August and Friday, 14 August 2026, ensuring drivers can navigate the county safely.
Wyattville Link Road Speed Limit
A temporary 50km/h speed limit continues on the westbound Wyattville Link Road between Cherrywood Avenue and the M50 southbound slip road. This restriction supports construction of the underpass for the Beckett Link Road Project and will remain until November 2026 or completion.
Current Closures and Diversions
Traffic management plans are active for both proposed and ongoing closures, with pedestrian and local access strictly maintained. Drivers must adhere to diversion routes to avoid delays.
Ongoing Infrastructure Projects
Long-term measures include roadworks, utility installations, and reinstatement works across the county. Traffic controllers will operate lane restrictions, temporary signals, Stop/Go systems, and local diversions where necessary.
Reinstatement Works Schedule
Scheduled works generally occur between 08:00 and 18:00 hours under strict Traffic Management Plans. Additional locations require Stop/Go systems to manage flow safely.
Telecommunications and Broadband
Development-related works continue, impacting local traffic patterns. Drivers should anticipate delays in these zones.
Safe Routes to School
The Safe Routes to School Programme is nearing completion. Only minor snagging remains, with minimal disruption expected during final finishing works.
New Pedestrian Crossing at Cornelscourt
The Council intends to install a new signalised pedestrian crossing at the N11 Cornelscourt Junction. This scheme will enhance safety and accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists while improving connectivity to public transport.
