MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)

Monday, September 28, 2009

QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor C. Brophy

"To ask the Manager to include Springfield in Templeogue in the footpath repair program for this year, as the existing footpaths are in a poor state of repair and there have been a number of trip accidents particularly by senior citizens?"

REPLY:

It will not be possible to include this area in the 2009 footpath  programme as it is fully committed. A full survey of the area was carried when the programme was being designed and all trip hazards were examined and prioritised at that time. When the 2010 Budget has been prepared, consideration will be given to the inclusion of this area in next years footpath repair programme having regard to the resources that are made available at that time.
