Toddler, baby crash deaths spark call for safety measures

A DOCTOR called yesterday for urgent safety measures to be implemented at a junction where at least six people have died, including a three-year-old boy and his nine-month-old sister.

Connell Clarges, aged 3, and his sister, Katie, from Cherrywood, Loughlinstown, Co Dublin, died when their family car collided with a lorry at Ashfield Cross just outside Rosslare Europort in August of last year.

Up to 8,000 vehicles use the road every day.
