I have had inquiries made on this matter and I am informed by the Garda authorities that the installation of a quality bus corridor and a no right turn in the vicinity of this location has led to an increase in vehicle traffic at the location in question. I am further informed by the Garda authorities that the location is monitored by them in relation to breaches of the three tonne limit. The only vehicles found to be in breach of the limit were providing services to residents of the area, that is, delivering home heating oil and collecting skips from persons having essential maintenance work done on their premises. All other goods vehicles checked in this area have been found to be under the limit.
