The purpose of the survey programme is to provide an evidence base for transport planning activities, including:

Understanding existing travel behaviour and traffic patterns;
Assessing the operation of the transport network;
Identifying existing and future transport challenges;
Supporting transport modelling and forecasting exercises;
Informing future infrastructure investment decisions; and
Supporting the development of transport policies, strategies and interventions.

The surveys comprise a combination of Automatic Traffic Counts (ATCs) and Junction Turning Counts (JTCs) at locations throughout the study area. Please find further details of the locations in the survey specification.

Survey cameras may be used to capture traffic movements over specified survey periods. The information collected is analysed to produce aggregated traffic data and traffic statistics. The outputs provided to Kilkenny County Council and AtkinsRéalis do not require identification of individual members of the public and are used solely for transport planning purposes.

The survey programme is being delivered by IDASO Ltd under appointment by Kilkenny County Council and managed by AtkinsRéalis UK Limited.

Traffic Survey Cameras will be installed as shown on the maps (Source: OpenStreet via AtkinsRéalis UK Limited) below to capture information over a period of 7 day (November 13th to 19th 2026).
