Old Singland Road Neighbourhood Guide
Limerick
About Old Singland Road
Old Singland Road is an established urban residential area on Limerick’s eastern side, close to the Dublin Road, Ballysimon and Rhebogue. Its setting combines mature housing, everyday convenience and relatively quick access to the city centre, while the nearby University of Limerick and Castletroy provide additional education, employment, shopping and leisure facilities. Residents generally rely on local bus services, the Dublin Road and the M7 interchange for commuting, with Limerick city centre reachable by road, cycle and public transport. Schools in the wider area include primary and secondary options around Singland, Caherdavin and Castletroy, while the University of Limerick is a major nearby third-level campus. Day-to-day shopping is available around the Dublin Road and Ballysimon, with larger retail facilities at Childers Road and nearby supermarkets. Pubs, cafés and restaurants are more concentrated along the Dublin Road, in Castletroy and in the city centre than directly on Old Singland Road. Leisure opportunities include the University Arena, local playing fields and the extensive riverside and parkland amenities around the University of Limerick. The area suits residents wanting a settled city neighbourhood with straightforward access to schools, retail parks, employment areas and Limerick’s central cultural and hospitality scene.
