Ennis business owners are divided on whether the town's main street should remain pedestrianised into the future.
From today, all routes in the town centre are open to traffic with the exception of O'Connell which is to remain pedestrian-only until February 16th.
Clare County Council is seeking views from the public on future access, traffic flow, and possible pedestrianisation options for the street, with an online survey to go live on the Clare County Council website from December 8th.
A new survey conducted by Retailers of Ennis meanwhile has found that 55% of local businesses are in favour of blending pedestrianisation and traffic flow on O'Connell Street, while the majority of respondents are calling for an increased Garda presence on the thoroughfare.
Clare FM's Seán Lyons has been speaking to a number of concerned stakeholders including Retailers of Ennis chairperson and owner of Custy's Music Shop, John O'Connor.
