Questions
"A resident (details supplied) on Ballymount Road raised a question with me in relation to the installation of Bollards on the pavement outside their house. The resident reported that the new bollards make it difficult to access their driveway by car.

To ask the Chief Executive could it be arranged for an engineer to contact this resident?"

"The standard marking of a white triangle for yield on cycle lanes is confusing and should be clarified. Younger cyclists, who are not of a driving age and not familiar with the rules of the road, may not be accustomed to this road marking.
I would like to suggest that the word 'Yield' is used instead of the white triangle marking (or added to the white triangle marking) to eliminate any confusion and improve overall safety on cycle lanes. If this motion is passed at Area Committee, it should be forwarded to the relevant SPC for their consideration."
"That the Chief Executive install dishing on the footpath near the Osprey Road gates."
"That the Chief Executive reports on what communication he has had with the developers working along Stocking Lane to deal with the shocking state of the roads in the area as a result of building works."
"At the Rathfarnham Templeogue Terenure Area Committee meeting on April 11 2017 a motion was passed in relation to the proposed development of Rosemount Car Park. The motion agreed that costings were to be prepared and presented to the ACM. Therefore I request that the Chief Executive present a report and proposed costings to next meeting of the Area Committee.
