MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO. 16

QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

"To ask the Chief Executive to provide a detailed update on plans to address traffic delays at Newcastle Road including any proposals to coordinate traffic signals, to modify lane arrangements at and approaching the N4 overbridge and to upgrade the SuperValu roundabout; and to further clarify whether the previously-proposed trial mini-roundabout is still being considered? 

REPLY:

The Council's Traffic section carried out a modification to the signals at the N4 junction Newcastle Road and there were significant improvements to traffic flows with reductions in queue lengths. There are no proposals to trial the mini roundabout as a result. However, a preliminary design for an NTA compliant scheme which was completed in 2015 will be advanced in 2016 to final design subject to funding .
