Resurfacing Works on Knockanrawley Road

Resurfacing works will take place on Knockanrawley Road, Tipperary Town on Wednesday 12^th and Thursday 13th June. A “Stop / Go” system will be in place for the duration of these works.

Temporary One-way Traffic System

The Contractor is currently preparing to commence online roadworks on Fr Mathew Street between the Bansha Road roundabout and the junction with Knockanrawley Road. In order to facilitate these works the Contractor is putting a one-way temporary traffic management system into place between the Bansha Road roundabout and the junction with the Knockanrawley Road. The one-way system entails:

As at present, all traffic travelling from Tipperary town towards Cashel will continue to travel along Fr. Mathew Street within a single lane.
All traffic approaching Tipperary town from the Cashel direction will be diverted to travel to the Bansha Road by turning left, after St. Michael’s Cemetery, onto the Knockanrawley Road
Alternative parking areas for residents, affected by the works, will be provided and will be advised as the works progress.

It is envisaged that this one-way system will be put in place from the 17th of June 2024 and will be in operation for approximately 8 months.
