Limerick’s Traffic Makeover | Ireland News

Limerick’s city center is set for a bold traffic transformation, slashing 200 on-street parking spots to prioritize pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport—creating “fifteen-minute neighborhoods” where essentials are within easy reach. Key moves include reversing one-way streets like Henry and William to slow traffic and boost safety, plus converting parts of O’Connell Street into bus-only lanes. Mayor John Moran admits parking cuts may sting, but cites global examples where similar changes invigorated local business. Public feedback is now open, and parking permits may see price hikes to deter driving into the core—while existing car parks stay accessible and new walking/cycling routes will make car-free living easier.
