MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 9

MOTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

"To complement Management on the good work done in refurbishing the footpaths in Palmerston Village and Old Lucan Road and to ask that the remainder of the footpath, at least from the Church to the end of the Cul de Sac at the western side where the houses are, be included in the 2013 programme of works, as this was promised when the second M50 bridge was built and again when the M50 was upgraded.  Also, that the area around the M50 footbridge be tidied up as it has been left in an unfinished state and the lights leading on and off the footbridge have not been working for some time making the area very unsafe for both pedestrians and cyclists especially over these long, dark, winter evenings."

REPORT:

Extensive footpath repair / replacement works were carried out in the Palmerston Village area in 2012. Further works towards the west of the cul de sac will be considered for inclusion in 2013 subject to the availability of funding.
A clean up of the area will be arranged. The public lighting section will be requested to repair the lighting columns as required.
