LIMERICK City and County Council is preparing for the upcoming cold snap this weekend and intends to undertake road salting operations as required and in line with its Winter Maintenance Plan.
Road conditions are forecast to be hazardous, with a yellow Low Temperature/Ice warning to be in place for Limerick and the rest of the country between 9pm tonight and 10am on Saturday.
Limerick Council is advising motorists that even where roads are gritted, slow down, drive with caution, be aware of other road users and allow extra time for your journey. Drivers travelling longer journeys are advised to be aware of conditions right along their route, as the weather may vary significantly across different parts of the country.
Pedestrians are advised to take extra care while walking: footpaths etc. can be extremely hazardous/slippery due to ice.
