In recent years, road alterations have little consideration for agricultural vehicles traversing country roads. Kildare County Council should take account of the vehicles which are needed to access farms when carrying out alterations. All too often roads are made narrower as a traffic calming measure resulting in wide vehicles being unable to safely manoeuvre. Basically, the vehicles that need to use the road need to be taken into account when designing new junctions, putting in cycle lanes etc. Most roads will have farms along them. Designs need to be practical.
