THE number of injuries to motorists in Dun LaoghaireRathdown has soared by 100%, according to new figures. Labour councillor Richard Humphreys this week expressed serious concern at the significant increase in those injured on roads within Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown county. “I acknowledge that, while the council and gardai have

done significant work in attempting to reduce fatalities in the county, there has been an increase from one fatality in 2009 to a provisional figure of five fatalities on the roads in 2010. “However, equally worrying is the huge increase in injuries on the roads. Injuries are at a 10-year high, having increased from 150 in 2007 to 308 in 2009 – an increase of more than 100%,” he said. Full Story on Page 2
