Friends & family prepare to bid farewell to a father who died on 'dangerous stretch' of a Co Kildare road this week

The father who died on a Co Kildare road this week is being laid to rest on Friday.

Urgent appeals are now being made to invest in a Co Kildare road after it claimed the life of  41-year-old father, Clark Duffy,  earlier this week.

Following the death of a motorcyclist in a single vehicle crash on the R413, Nicholastown Kilcullen Road between Kilcullen village and Mile Mill, during the early hours of the morning, on Monday, September 25,  there are calls for action.

Cllr Ivan Keatley is calling for funding to ensure that the road is made safe.

He said: "I definitely think that rumble strips need to be put in. It is a dangerous stretch of road."

Mr Duffy, formerly of Laytown, Co Meath and Bailieborough, Co Cavan, is survived by his son Malachy, mother Tish, father Martin, brother Adam, Sally-Ann, step- children, Justin, Roxanne , Harrison, grandchildren and extended family and his biker friends.
