This council requests the Chief Executive to immediately make provisions for installation of public toilets into L/P/NC area on a temporary basis' in locations that serve the wider community. This requests arises from the many calls, emails etc we as local representatives have received and especially due to the current climate whereby there will be no easing of the restrictions for some-time and from today travel within our county has been extended, from 5km to 20km. Footfall in spaces such as recreational amenities, parks, villages etc are now in higher numbers, and many will be able travel further, but with no access to toilet facilities. We as a county and at national level have been and continue to encourage our citizens, to stay local, shop local and support local. The lack of toilet facilities has become an issue and in many cases causing stress and anxiety. 'Last summer, thousands of people met up for walks and talks in our parks and found themselves at a loss when nature called. Public toilets are needed in order to enjoy 'the outdoors for more than an hour or two' this summer.

That a full review be carried out into requests by residents (the subject of several motions and questions over the years) for a 3.5T restriction on Kennelsfort Rd, and on the 'Cell' between the R148 at the Oval and Kennelsfort road. To include the decision of the full Council (H.12 {11} July 2015) to have a 3.5T restriction on Kennelsfort Rd and the decision of the then Lucan LAC (November 2016 Item ID: 51367) to impose a 3.5T restriction on the cell between the Oval and Kennelsfort Road, neither of which have been acted upon. And that a full report be brought before this LAC for consideration at the October 2019 meeting.
REPORT: There is a weight restriction of 7.5 tonnes on the Kennelsfort Road which was applied in accordance with the Council's policy document 'The Mobility and Management of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV's) on South Dublin County Road Network'. This policy was adopted by the members of South Dublin County Council in 2013. The installation of a HGV restriction is an executive function requiring consultation with the Garda Commissioner. It is the position of SDCC and An Garda Siochana that the appropriate limit is in place on Kennelsfort Road as outlined on a number of occasions. SDCC has agreed to a 3.5 tonne weight restriction on the estate roads between the Oval and Kennelsfort Road. This has been communicated on a number of occasions to An Garda Siochana. No response has been received.
