I mean they're all related to the works and affecting us commuters during this process, so I was kind of enjoying people's inputs tbh, it was helpful.
Or is this thread purely for comments on the actual progress of the works themselves? Fair enough if so. It might be worth creating a second thread in motoring about general discussion? (if there's one already then someone please post link ifI missed it)
Might as well ask before banging on about the traffic flow today and getting banned

Open a thread in the Motoring forum, it is a more appropriate area for that kind of discussion. Yes, that is exactly correct. If traffic discussions were allowed, then that is all that would be discussed, and the Mororing forum would miss out, and we would not like that.You should use the PM function to get this kind of answer.

Shame as weekends should be utilised as much as possible. I have a feeling next week will be the same as this one with working area cordoned off for safety reasons. I drove 60 km/h from Naas to Newbridge and every single car overtook me!

Threads have become very quiet lately because discussion is being stifled by one mod in particular. I understand traffic incidents and such are not strictly related to the progress of a build, but they are relevant to the road being discussed.

I see some works going on just outside Sallins on the road to Clane, before the Prosperous Road. Is this where the bypass will start?
