A campaigner has criticized the media's focus on the A5 road safety issue, stating that coverage only increases when fatalities occur. Niall McKenna, chair of the "Enough is Enough" group, made the comments during a radio interview on the Greg Hughes Show. The discussion took place ahead of a decision on an appeal related to a previous High Court ruling that overturned the Department of Infrastructure's approval for the road. McKenna emphasized that the A5 remains a dangerous route, with ongoing concerns about its safety for drivers and pedestrians. The appeal is expected to influence future planning and safety measures for the road. The group has been advocating for improved conditions and stricter regulations for years, but McKenna noted that public and media attention remains low unless incidents occur. The upcoming decision could mark a turning point in the ongoing debate over the A5's safety. The situation highlights the challenges of maintaining consistent attention on infrastructure issues that do not involve immediate crises.
