MOTION NO. 7
MOTION: Councillor W. Lavelle
"That this Committee, noting the previous motions to both the December 2010 and November 2011 meetings of this Committee, again requests the Manager to create new dedicated filter lanes on both Willsbrook and Ballyowen Roads at their approach to the Grange Castle Road (Outer Ring Road) signalised junctions; and further declares our opposition to any works which would result in a reduction of the number of vehicles which can get through this junction, from Willsbrook and Ballyowen Roads, during green-lights."
REPORT:
We are examining this matter in relation to a proposal for a cycle track along Willsbrook Road. Consultants have been engaged to prepare preliminary design along the route and the junction will be examined for optimization for all modes of transport with particular reference to vulnerable road users.
