The R458

Jhcx

Hi guys just wondering if anyone could help me. Im trying to find the correct name for the R458 that passes from clareabbey roundabout upto applegreen/st.flannans

According to google they have it listed as the Limerick rd, yet the Ennis COCO refer to the same road as the Clare rd, most advertisements on daft are referred to Clare Rd. geohive.ie do not have any name bar the R458. There is also a stone at the corner across from applegreen referring to it as the Clare rd.

Is R458 Clare Rd the correct title for this rd?

Included pic for ref.

I always thought the Clare road was the part after the traffic lights between Flannans and the Cathedral, and the Limerick road was after Flannans towards the Clarecastle roundabout

But that's just me

so did i but from clarecastle to the roundabout its the Clare Rd, and from after Applegreen onto the mill rd its the Clare Rd, wouldn't make much sense to just have a section differently

It's the Clare Road, there isn't any Limerick Road in Ennis

I think when they built the by-pass they had to change a part of the road for the roundabout which means it's technically a new road between the Halfway and Clarecastle, there might have been an issue between Ennis Urban Council and Clare County Council at the time over it but that might be just a rumour.

My uncle lives between the Maxol roundabout and the Hawthorns roundabout and his address is The Clare Road.

Just for further confirmation, I went to school in Flannan's with lots of lads from the area and it was always the Clare Road for the locals. Only people who didn't know any better called it the Limerick Road

Maybe it depends on which direction you are going
