"That the Chief Executive urgently sets in place a process to close off all access from the old Lucan Newlands Road wasteland on the historic esker between Castle Riada and Moy Glas, given that a proposed accessibility study access cycle corridor did not go ahead and is unlikely to be revived in the near future; given the ongoing antisocial behaviour and break-ins being experienced by residents in both estates all along this route; and in particular to immediately close up with a brick wall or fence the gap between Castle Riada Drive and Moy Glas lawn (which the Council made wider recently despite efforts by residents to close it off), as this flies in the face of the agreed closure of the fence onto the ORR at this location following a request by Moy Glas residents Association and is dearly wanted by residents living in Castle Riada Drive who have reported thieves using the gap to escape following break-ins."

"Could the Chief Executive ensure that the following outstanding issues in relation to works at Newlands cross be addressed.
1. The noise emanating from the large gantry on the new flyover which affects Newlands residents at all times, but especially at night.
2. The noise that rings out when a vehicle drives over the
manhole covers on the slip road which is adjacent to the Newlands houses. The manhole covers are near to the aforementioned gantry.
3. The fact that most sections of the new footpath on the sliproad under the flyover and adjacent to the Newlands houses are badly cracked. This is a popular walking route. Such shoddy workmanship is unacceptable."
