Public drop-in consultations for Urban Speed Limit Review 2026

Donegal County Council has undertaken a speed limit review of all public roads in towns, villages and settlements with an existing speed limit of 60km/h or lower.

These speed limits have been assessed in accordance with the Department of Transport guidelines and proposed changes recommended.

The Council is running a 30-day statutory consultation period including drop in events in each Municipal District to facilitate public feedback on the proposals.
