"That the Chief Executive re-examines safety at the Spawell Roundabout as the pedestrian lights at the approach from the Templeogue direction, heading towards Tallaght is causing enormous confusion, especially for tourists visiting the County as they believe they have right of way at the roundabout and drive straight through. I was involved in a RTA there in late June and could not believe the number of constituents who contacted me to say the exact same thing had happened to them on the Spawell Roundabout."
"That the Chief Executive prepares a report on the state of the footpaths within the Rathfarnham area, outlining which areas need immediate attention, how long works will take and the cost of such works.
