Digital advertising display replaces two static displays on N4, height increases to 5.8m

JCDecaux Ireland Limited has lodged a proposal with Leitrim County Council to consolidate advertising infrastructure on the N4 at Carrick-on-Shannon. The company plans to replace two existing static advertising displays with a single digital unit at Attifinlay on the Dublin Road, positioned adjacent to the Homesavers retail store car park.

The new digital display will measure 6.28 metres by 3.4 metres, slightly smaller in width than the two displays it replaces, which each measured 6.4 metres by 3.35 metres. However, the installation would be mounted at a greater height, rising from the current 4.6 metres to 5.8 metres above ground level.

The proposal has attracted scrutiny from Transport Infrastructure Ireland, which lodged an objection to the application on 21 May. The concerns raised by TII were not detailed in the planning submission summary.

The development represents a shift from static to digital advertising at the busy commuter route serving the county town, though the consolidation reduces the overall number of billboard structures at the location.
