As a follow up to the last post according to RTE news Meath County Council is warning truck drivers that they may introduce emergency by-laws to reduce truck traffic through Enfield town.
At least Enfield has a ring road, what about Clonard?

Just a week after Taoiseach Bertie Ahern officially opened the new M4 motorway designed to take heavy traffic out of Enfield, the toll charges on the new route are at the centre of controversy as truckers object to the high fees for using the motorway.
Hauliers are still driving through the main street of Enfield village to avoid paying the E6 toll, and are not using the inner relief road of Enfield, built a number of years ago at a cost of E11 million.
Jimmy Quinn, the spokesperson for the IRHA, is hoping for public support for a day of protest when they gather en masse at the toll booths in the new year.
However, if they don’t keep out of Enfield, they’ll have little public sympathy from people there, local public representative, Colr Willie Carey said this week.
Colr Carey’s daughter seems to be having some problems with noise levels from the motorway.
