New sets of traffic lights are to be installed at two key Tuam junctions over the next two weeks
The existing junction at Ballygaddy Road and Milltown Road is a major access route for traffic coming from Kilconly, Kilbannon and Ballinrobe into Tuam
The Weir Road junction is also a very busy route, with traffic from Sylane, Caherlistrane and the Tuam Industrial Park feeding into the town and connecting to the motorway.
Cathaoirleach Karey McHugh-Farag says outdated signals are being replaced with modern systems designed to address long-standing traffic delays
