MOTION NO. 8

MOTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

"That the Chief Executive discusses traffic issues in the vicinity of Ballyowen Castle shopping centre and Castle Road passing Rochfort, Colthurst, Abbeydale and Abbeywood and, further to traffic management meeting discussions, develops a plan of action to ensure a more streamlined flow of traffic in this area, which as mentioned, is not operating to maximum efficiency in terms of car spaces being filled after traffic light changes; and if he will make a statement on the matter."

REPORT:

Recent roadworks at this location caused damage to the vehicle detector loops. This resulted in inefficent operation of the signals. The damged detector loops have now been replaced and the signals are operating normally.
