"That this Committee agrees that the Council should again consider the provision of a green waste facility in Lucan whether directly provided by the Council or in conjunction with a local community or environmental project."
"To request that the Chief Executive considers all possible measures to be put in place around Lucan to help alleviate traffic congestion, particularly during the upcoming road works, including opening bus lanes at pinch points and prioritising traffic lights to facilitate traffic trying to cross/access the Outer Ring Road and the N4. To further request that points men are put in place at road works during peak times to minimise traffic congestion?"

"That this committee requests that adjustments be made to Kennelsfort Road so that (a) both the 26 and 18 Buses can safely use the Bus stop at the (Palmerstown Cemetery) Woodfarm Acres 26 Terminus, at present the 18 Bus cannot safely enter this area if a 26 Bus is in situ and it has taken to dropping off passengers at the floral display which is unsafe for alighting passengers and unfair to passengers who wish to join the 18 Bus at this point (b) that traffic travelling West from Upper Kennelsfort Road can “slip” without entering the junction. The policy decision to provide for an Uturn for traffic coming from the West on the R148 is creating a very serious safety hazard and the proposed slip road left out from Kennelsfort Road Upper will eliminate or greatly reduce the risks (c) that the exit from the hard surface/Palmerstown Ave Laneway be moved from the current position East of the pedestrian crossing to the top end of this space, the current situation is both a traffic hazard and impractical ((d) that the pedestrian crossing linking the Covert and the Palmerstown Ave be suitable lined so that traffic will be prohibited from stopping on it when the lights at the R1q48 turn Red, the present situation is untenable for parents with a buggy or persons in a wheelchair."
