That this Committee requests the Chief Executive to provide an update on when Adamstown Lucan will finally receive the public transport infrastructure originally envisioned for the Strategic Development Zone (SDZ). Given Adamstown's designation as the very first SDZ in the country a status granted with the promise of sustainable integrated public infrastructure it is vital that the community receives the direct high-capacity public transport links it was promised. In particular we need clarity on: 1. When a direct public transport link to the city centre will be delivered; 2. The provision of public transport connectivity north and south of the R136 Outer Ring Road; 3. Connections to and from the R120 corridor.
