Despite the RSA only last week releasing a map showing the many, many collisions around the city and the devastating, life long impacts they can have, the council have indicated that the only locations where 30kph will apply will be directly outside schools and within housing estates only along with a handful of other areas, rather than city wide on all routes where vulnerable users interact with vehicles

More 30km/h speed limit zones to be implemented in Galway City

You can view the RSA collision map here

Now, unfortunately the RSA site doesn't allow you to look at the collision data by road user type, so I pulled the data from it and made my own. Below shows just the collisions for pedestrians and cyclists in their data

Galway City - RSA Collision Data - Pedestrians & Cyclists 2016-2024

So why the big deal you ask. Simply put, a vehicle hitting someone at 50k results in a 50% fatality rate whereas with a 30kph impact, you are looking at a 90% survival rate with far less severe injuries

When we talk about "serious injuries" from road collisions, we're talking about injuries along the lines of the following:

• Traumatic Brain & Head Injuries: Concussions, skull fractures, and acquired brain damage.
• Spinal & Neck Trauma: Injuries to the cervical spine that can lead to permanent damage or paralysis.
• Bone Fractures: Any broken bone, particularly complex, compound, or multiple fractures (e.g., severe leg or pelvic breaks).
• Internal Injuries: Damage to vital internal organs.
• Crush Injuries: Any bodily crushing, often sustained by vulnerable road users (cyclists, pedestrians, or motorcyclists).
• Severe Lacerations: Deep, severe cuts and tears.
• Severe General Shock: Medical trauma requiring active, severe shock management.

If you find this acceptable, fine, don't do anything. If on the other hand, you don't believe the proposed changes go far enough, and instead kids should be able to get all the way home without interacting with 50kph vehicles, then reach out to the City Councilors. You can find contact details for all of them here.

To make it easier to reach out to them, I'll add a comment below with all their GCC email addresses that you can simply copy and paste into an email

You can find the full details in the following City Council folder

The plan covers a lot more than just Cross Street

To replicate:

1. Open a PBI file in the desktop editor
2. Add some pages
3. Insert a page navigator
4. In the option, under Grid Layout, set columns to 0
5. File will lock up

May also occur with rows

Edit: In short, I think the fix here is to make the min row & columns = 1 as it does not make sense to be able to set those to 0

Hi, just wondering if something like this is possible

I work from home but also have a gamer lad in the house and he's sucking up the bandwidth.

Is there a way to give him, say, a 50mb connection and leave me with 450mb?
