Show Notes

Galway City Council opted against a no-confidence vote in the Road Safety Authority (RSA), instead endorsing a reevaluation of the agencys road safety role. The motion was initially proposed by Councillor Alan Curran, who cited increasing road fatalities and perceived flawed safety messages. However, other councillors, including Labours Niall McNeilis, defended the RSAs efforts to reduce fatalities. The RSA responded with a letter highlighting Irelands strong road safety record, ranking sixth in the EU. Despite a slight increase in death rates in 2025, the RSA emphasized the importance of local councils role in road safety and welcomed closer collaboration with Galway.
