That this council agree traffic in Clondalkin village is heavily congested at certain times of the day and any alterations/improvements to the roads in the village do not further impede the flow of traffic by reducing the number of lanes, narrowing roads, or tightening access to and from estates within the LPF.
That this council agree not to make any additional traffic calming alterations to the Woodford Hill/Monastery Road roundabout which would make it even more challenging for vehicles to use and cause further traffic delays.
That an objective is inserted in the Framework plan to actively seek out opportunities for an entreprise type building to give art & crafts a start up in village Reason 2 regenerate village currently vape shops , hairdressers , nailbars etc also increase tourism
That an objective is inserted in the Framework plan to actively work with landowners to repurpose any empty buildings in the ACA Reason 2 bungalows main street & old dispencery on tower road
That in an effort to reduce congestion in Clondalkin village this council propose the reopening of Pope Lane to traffic from Orchard Lane to Main Street and the reintroduction of a right hand turn at the bottom of New Road onto Monastery Road. This would mean a short two way system between New Road and Broe Auctioneers on Monastery Road. This would eliminate the need for cars travelling from New Road to Monastery Road to go around the village, significantly reducing congestion and emissions in the village. Less time spent in traffic also means fewer stressed drivers. With the thousands of new homes coming online in Clonburris and the opening of the new junction at the bottom of the Neilstown Bridge, finding ways to improve traffic flow is essential unless we want the village to be gridlocked all day.
That this council agrees in line with SM9 Objective 1 which states: "To assess the need for junction improvements, upgrading where necessary, to improve road safety for all users, giving priority to those most vulnerable, while providing for traffic flow in and out of the village centre having due regard to the Spatial Planning and National Roads Guidelines for Planning Authorities 2012." that all existing left hand turn slip lanes within the LPF area will be maintained.
To ask the Chief Executive to detail its strategy toward solar PV installation of existing housing, apartment complexes and future developments. Report to include current budget and projected annual budget allocation between now and 2030.
That this council agree the dph of the Ninth Lock, Mill Centre site be restricted to a maximum of 150, but ideally 40-80 dbh as per the government's guidelines: "'City - Suburban/Urban Extension Suburban areas are the lower density car-orientated residential suburbs constructed at the edge of cities in the latter half of the 20th and early 21st century, while urban extension refers to the greenfield lands at the edge of the existing built up footprint that are zoned for residential or mixed-use (including residential) development. It is a policy and objective of these Guidelines that residential densities in the range 40 dph to 80 dph (net) shall generally be applied at suburban and urban extension locations in Dublin and Cork, and that densities of up to 150 dph (net) shall be open for consideration at 'accessible' suburban / urban extension locations (as defined in Table 3.8).'" https://assets.gov.ie/static/documents/2cd4f729-sustainable-residential-development-and-compact-settlements-guidelines-for-pl.pdf The current proposed maximum limit of dph 250 is excessive and unsuitable for a heritage suburban village like Clondalkin.
