Locals to vote to correct misspellings on towns’ signage

Local groups have formed in the towns of Lahinch, Ennistymon, and Corofin, with each group set write to Clare County Council later this week to officially begin the legal process of changing the towns’ names. The local authority has confirmed it is the appropriate agency to deal with this issue, and that a local vote, similar to that hosed in Dingle in 2006, may also be required.
This situation arose more than five years ago when Transport Infrastructure Ireland, formally the NRA, contracted Clare County Council to update signage on the N67 tourism route.
