Gardaí are urging Clare fans not to take the Thurles exit on the motorway when travelling to Semple Stadium tomorrow. Due to extensive roadworks taking place on the Nenagh to Thurles road, motorists are expected to face significant delays for the evening throw-in. Instead fans are being urged to continue on the motorway to Templemore or Roscrea and approach from that side or to alternatively exit the motorway at Birdhill. Inspector James White has this advice.

The Justice Minister says he's not committed to any specific policing model for the Clare-Tipperary Garda Division. Since the divisions amalgamated in 2023 , concern has been particularly expressed in the East of the county over call out delays and stressed resources, as its now centrally managed from Nenagh. Additionally the number of Gardaí in Ennis alone is 90 fewer than in 2005, despite the population soaring by 20% in the same timeframe. Speaking at Ennis Garda Station today, Minister Jim O'Callaghan has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan he's hopeful of seeing more Gardaí allocated to Clare by the year's end.

For this week's Grass10 grazing management update, John Maher discusses why, due to the challenging conditions in spring 2026, a flexible approach has to be applied on farm to begin the 2nd rotation. By early April, dry farms should have about 60 units (75 kg N/ha) of N applied (combination of fertiliser and slurry) and most farms need to assess regrowths on the first 3 paddocks grazed for the next 2-3 weeks. Meanwhile, the featured farmer is Kieran Kennedy from Nenagh, Co. Tipperary. Read more from this week's Grass10 newsletter and subscribe for weekly updates at:https://bit.ly/Grass10-31stMarch   For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

We continue our journey through the memories of the Showband era. Many of the musicians from that time are still writing and performing, and my next guest is one of them.

It's claimed the lack of dementia-specific care beds in Clare is a significant burden on affected families. It's estimated that up to 1,700 people in this county and around 64,000 nationally are living with dementia, with the national figure set to rise to over 150,000 by 2045. At this month's Clare County Council meeting, local representatives heard of an elderly woman currently being transferred between St John's Hospital and Nenagh due to a lack of beds. Newmarket-on-Fergus Fianna Fáil Councillor, David Griffin says it's causing increased stress in an already challenging situation.

The Health Minister has pledged to enhance services at Ennis Hospital but has given no commitment to emergency care in Clare. Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has described a new “strategic site” acquired in Limerick to solve hospital overcrowding in the MidWest as “HIQA's Option B and C Plus.” The Minister has described the €14 million, 43.8 acre site in Raheen as a strategic site for the MidWest Health system for the next thirty years, located a 28 minute drive away from Ennis and Nenagh. Over 40% of Clare's population lives more than an hour's drive from their nearest Emergency Department and the Minister said her vision for Ennis's progression is similar to that of Bantry General Hospital in Cork, which doesn't have an ED or proposals for one. Despite this, Minister Carroll MacNeill insists Clare “was at the centre of their plans” in the MidWest. However, health campaigners here have expressed "anger and deep frustration" following the announcement that a site has been identified for a new hospital campus for the Midwest. The Friends of Ennis Hospital claims 130,000 people in Clare along with a further 80,000 in Tipperary will see limited benefit from the hospital being located in the city.

The Health Minister has pledged to enhance services at Ennis Hospital, but has given no commitment to emergency care in Clare. During her official announcement today, Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has described a new "strategic site" acquired in Limerick to solve hospital overcrowding in the MidWest as "HIQA's Option B and C Plus." Health Minister Jennifer Carrol MacNeill visited Limerick this morning, where she confirmed details of the Midwest's new hospital. The Minister has described the €14 million, 43.8 acre site in Raheen as a strategic site for the MidWest Health system for the next thirty years, located a 28 minute drive away from Ennis and Nenagh. Her next step will be to appoint a project development board, which will develop healthcare services for the overall region and a report is due to be published later this year that will recommend additional services are provided in Clare. Last September, the Department of Health pledged to progress all three of HIQA's recommendations to solve hospital overcrowding in the region. The options included expanding the University Hospital Limerick Campus, extending the campus to another nearby site and delivering a new Model 3 hospital with a new ED in the MidWest. Jennifer Carroll MacNeill believes Option B and C can be delivered in Raheen. During her announcement today, which Clare media were not invited to attend, the Minister said emergency care in the region had to be expanded and that having two model 4 hospitals within 10 minutes of each other was a possibility. She also hasn't ruled out moving the maternity hospital to the Raheen site. Over 40% of Clare's population lives more than an hour's drive from their nearest Emergency Department and the Minister said her vision for Ennis's progression is similar to that of Bantry General Hospital in Cork, which doesn't have an ED or proposals for one. Despite this, Minister Carroll MacNeill insists Clare "was at the centre of their plans" in the MidWest.

Having grown up in Nenagh, Carrick-on-Shannon and Dublin, John Doyle moved to Toronto in 1980 to pursue a PhD in English Literature at York University. Having done some student and freelance journalism in Ireland, John continued to write in Canada and eventually abandoned writing for academic reward to concentrate on writing as a career. He describes himself as a sometimes critic, columnist and soccer writer at the Globe and Mail for whom he wrote for nearly thirty years. He has also written for the New York Times and the Guardian. His book, A Great Feast of Light: Growing Up Irish in the Television Age was published to acclaim in Canada in 2005, while his book about soccer, The World is a Ball: The Joy, Madness, and Meaning of Soccer was a national bestseller in Canada on publication in the summer of 2010 and longlisted for The William Hill Irish Sports Book Of The Year.In this conversation, we discuss John' s relationship with his home country, Ireland since moving to Toronto as well as his reasons for moving here and how Toronto has shaped him. Towards the end of our conversation, we discuss his upcoming play, Shelter, which the Canada Ireland Foundation will be showing in the brand new Corleck Building as part of the Bealtaine Theatre Festival in May 2026.

Éire Óg's Shane O'Donnell claims the structure of the Munster Club Hurling Championship has resulted in a less than ideal preparation for their semi final tie.

As the 25th hub to join the SIRO-Vodafone Gigabit Hub Initiative, REACH is supporting growth opportunities for local businesses in Tipperary.

SIRO's full fibre broadband offers speeds of up to 2 gigabits per second, allowing households and businesses to enjoy seamless online experiences.

For businesses, world-class broadband is critical, supporting growth, digitalisation, and competitiveness. For households, it underpins everything from remote working and online learning to streaming and gaming. With copper switch-off now on the horizon, SIRO's full fibre network ensures that Tipperary Town is ready for the future."

As part of the SIRO-Vodafone Gigabit Hub Initiative, REACH will enjoy seamless, high-speed fibre broadband. Located in the heart of Roscrea, REACH is the 25th hub to join the Gigabit Hub Initiative. The hub was officially opened this week with representatives from the REACH Board, elected representatives, Tipperary County Council officials and other key stakeholders all in attendance. The Gigabit Hub Initiative, delivered by SIRO and Vodafone, provides gigabit fibre connectivity to remote working and digital hubs across Ireland. REACH joins a network of successful hubs, including Dundalk's Creative Spark, Galway's PorterShed, and Skibbereen's Ludgate Hub, all of which have benefited from the initiative. With SIRO's full-fibre broadband offering speeds of up to 1 Gigabit per second, the hub provides fast and reliable connectivity to meet the business needs of all companies and individuals working with the REACH hub. REACH offers a supportive environment for businesses of all sizes, from start-ups and freelancers to growing SMEs.

It is already home to key organisations driving regional growth, including Tipperary Education and Training Board, a leading education and training provider, and Herdwatch, a Roscrea-founded agri-tech company transforming livestock and pasture management across Ireland, the UK, and beyond. REACH is set to become a key driver of business growth in Roscrea, offering entrepreneurs, SMEs, and remote workers the space and connectivity they need to thrive. Its strategic location, combined with SIRO's full-fibre broadband, ensures that businesses can operate with the same level of digital infrastructure as those in any major urban centre. SIRO is a leading full-fibre broadband operator, rolling out a 100% fibre broadband network across Ireland. Its network is currently available in multiple locations across Tipperary, including Cashel, Nenagh, Thurles, Clonmel, and Roscrea. Brendan Hyland, Chairperson of REACH, thanked SIRO for their engagement and support of the project: "This project has taken many hours of dedication from the Board and supporters. Today, we are proud to stand in a modern, future-proof building that will attract enterprise and innovation to Roscrea. It will stand as a flagship for innovation and renewal in Roscrea. This outstanding facility has received over €2.3 million under the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund, which is administered by the Department of Rural and Community Development and the Gaeltacht. Tipperary County Council has provided an additional €774,000 in funding." John Keaney, SIRO Chief Executive Officer, commented: "REACH is a fantastic addition to Roscrea, providing businesses with a state-of-the-art space to work, collaborate, and grow. Powered by SIRO's full-fibre broadband, this hub will help businesses and entrepreneurs compete on both a national and international scale. We are delighted to partner with Vodafone to deliver world-class connectivity to this hub and support Roscrea's economic regeneration." Ciaran Barrett, Commercial Operations Director of Vodafone Ireland, added: "Connectivity is more than just infrastructure - it's about empowering people and businesses to thrive. At Vodafone, we're committed to ensuring that every customer, whether in a city or a town like Roscrea, has access to the same high-quality digital experience. Through our partnership with SIRO, REACH will offer seamless fibre broadband that enables entrepreneurs, SMEs, and remote workers to stay connected, productive, and competitive in today's world."
