Construction has started on the solar farm in Timahoe North Bog, Drehid. I have had a number of people contact me in relation to the haulage traffic on the road serving the site.
I spoke with the Community Liaison Officer with Bord na Móna and he has reassured me that our safety concerns will be passed on to the project team involved here. I expect to see an immediate reduction in speed by the construction traffic from today, and our local Gardaí have agreed to carry out speed checks in the coming days and weeks.
