SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL
MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)
Monday, June 28, 2010
QUESTION NO. 11
QUESTION: Councillor B. Lawlor
"To ask the Manager to carry out a inspection at Monalea Grove with a view to providing a ramp and signage at entrance/exit of estate?"
REPLY:
In response to a large number of requests for traffic calming measures throughout the Council’s administrative area the Council’s Transportation Strategic Policy Committee at its meeting on the 11th May 2006 adopted a new Traffic Calming programme comprising of four schemes in each of the Council’s five electoral areas. The selection of each individual scheme will be made by the relevant Area Committee from the Traffic Calming Request List.
In relation to Monalea Grove it would be of assistance if the local residents submitted a petition to the Roads Department identifying the traffic problems on their road and requesting the Council to provide appropriate traffic calming measures.
On receipt of this information Monalea Grove will be included on the Traffic Calming Request List for the consideration of the Tallaght Area Committee.
With regard to signage at the entrance / exit of the estate, this matter will be examined and a report will be made to the Traffic Management Committee at its next meeting with regard to possible measures that can be undertaken. Any deficiency in signage will be rectified subject to the availability of the necessary finance.
