That this Committee, further to my previous repeated requests, recommends that the Manager installs a signalised pedestrian crossing on Griffeen Avenue at Oldbridge Estate on the basis that the provision of a new signalised pedestrian crossing at this location could reliably be expected to increase the overall number of pedestrians crossing Griffeen Avenue and in particular to increase the numbers of children (and parents) walking to school; and therefore the fact that a traffic count warrant has not yet been reached should be disregarded as a reason not to install this importantly-strategic signalised pedestrian crossing which has been a long-held objective of the local community in Oldbridge, Rossberry, Tullyhall and Hayden’s Park Estates, from where many pedestrians, including hundreds of school children, have to cross the busy Griffeen Avenue to access Griffeen Valley Educate Together NS, the Griffeen Youth Centre, the local shops and bus-stops.
