MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, February 08, 2011

MOTION NO. 6

MOTION: Councillor P. Cosgrave

"That the Manager request Dublin Bus to look at a different site for the Bus stop at 113 Marian Road to take into account.

  1. The Bus stop is close to the entrance to Pinewood Park and opposite the exit of Rosemount shopping centre. This unsuitable location is causing traffic back up along Marian Road and could lead to a serious traffic accident.
  2. What safety criteria do Dublin Bus, South Dublin Co.Co. and the Garda Traffic Section use when choosing a location for a bus stop."

REPORT:

If the motion is approved, the matter will be referred to Dublin Bus for their attention and when a reply is received the Committee will be notified accordingly. It should be noted however, that the location of bus stops is solely a matter for Dublin Bus and the Gardai.
