MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

MOTION NO. 211

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

That this Council develops an integrated cycle way connection Lucan and Palmerstown to Fingal County Council and allowing greater access to St. Catherine’s Park and its associated facilities.

REPORT:

South Dublin County Council worked in close consultation with the National Transport Authority (NTA) to develop a County wide cycling network. The county wide network was integrated with those of adjoining Counties and incorporated into the NTAs Greater Dublin Area Strategic Cycle Network. This document identifies a hierarchy of primary, secondary, feeder routes and Greenways for the GDA, including a Primary Route directly linking Lucan and Palmerstown and the Liffey Valley Greenway which will link Lucan, Palmerstown and St Catherine’s Park. These links will feed into the network of further connections into Fingal. South Dublin County Council will continue to work closely with the NTA to procure for the continued roll of the GDA Strategic Cycle Network throughout the lifetime of this plan.

Recommendation

It is recommended that this motion is adopted.
