Parking

New Ross Town Council operate a number of conveniently located car parks in the Town and have, for ease of access, 26 Pay Parking Machines located in prominent locations around the Town. 

Signage

As it is of vital importance that a pedestrian signage scheme for a town links in with any existing vehicular signage scheme/s, New Ross Town Council and Fáilte Ireland have improved the tourist signage within New Ross, a Historic Town, into a coherent, consistent and trustworthy set of pedestrian signs to ensure that the experiences of visitors are pleasant, stimulating and welcoming, and to ensure that they can explore this historic town with ease.

Traffic Management Plan

A new Traffic Management Plan was adopted in May 2011, by the Council. This Plan will benefit all road users, both drivers and pedestrians alike. The work has already commenced and will be completed before the end of the year.
