Kilmeen Action Group has called on Transport Infrastructure Ireland to provide lighting for the intersection near Loughrea which has been the scene of several collisions.

The group argues that according to TII policy, under a 'departure from standard', the county council must provide sufficient evidence to TII that lighting is required.
