Nine schools in Tyrone and four in Fermanagh have been selected for new part-time 20mph speed-limit schemes under a Northern Ireland programme announced on Thursday 22 October.

The schools appear in the Department for Infrastructure's newly published 2026/27 list. The announcement confirms selection for installation; it does not give a common switch-on date or establish that the new limits are already operating at every listed school today.

Tyrone schools on the new list

The Press counted nine entries with County Tyrone addresses in the department's official Tranche 4 school list:

Gaelscoil Uí Dhochartaigh, Strahan's Road, Strabane.

Saint John's Primary School, Reenaderry Road, Coalisland.

Donaghey Primary School, Killygarvin Road, Dungannon.

All Saints Primary School, Tattysallagh Road, Omagh.

Knocknagor Primary School, Moorfield Road, Trillick.

Tummery Primary School, Newpark Road, Dromore.

Ballytrea PS, Gortnaskea Road, Stewartstown.

Derrylatinee PS, Derrylattinee Road, Dungannon.

Roscavey PS, Clogherney Road, Beragh.

These are separate schools within the same programme, rather than nine schemes independently confirmed as active this morning. Families can check the complete addresses against the department's list when identifying their school's entry.

Four Fermanagh schools also selected

The same document names St Naile's Primary School at Kinawley; Saint Patrick's Primary School at Mullanaskea, Garvary; Killyhommon Primary School at Boho; and St Macartan's Primary School at Tattynageeragh, Roslea.

The county totals here are The Press's count of the addresses in the official document, not a separate county breakdown issued by the department. The publication page identifies it as the 2026/27 fourth tranche and dates its publication to 22 October.

What has been announced

Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins's announcement covers 34 schools across Northern Ireland. The department says the selected sites are on rural roads where the national speed limit applies and that the part-time measures are intended to slow traffic at the start and end of the school day.

This fourth tranche would bring the programme to 307 schools since 2020/21. The statement's reference to most schemes already being operational concerns the 40 schools announced last year, rather than confirmation that the newly selected 34 are now active.

For parents and drivers, the immediate change is confirmation that these schools are included in the next installation programme. The published statement and list do not supply individual installation dates or daily operating hours for the new sites. Drivers should follow the signs and restrictions actually in place on their route; inclusion in this announcement alone should not be treated as an activation notice.

This is a Northern Ireland Department for Infrastructure scheme, using miles per hour. It does not announce a change to school-road limits in the Republic of Ireland.
