MEETING OF TERENURE-RATHFARNHAM AREA COMMITTEE (1)

Tuesday 10th January 2006

MOTION No. 5

ROCKFIELD AVENUE/WHITEHALL ROAD - JUNCTION

MOTION: Councillor M. Árdagh

"That the Manager give a report on the area at the junction of Rockfield Avenue and Whitehall Road which is presently being used for carparking and to say when this area will be seeded and landscaped and the kerbs increased in height to prevent further parking at this location."

REPORT:

This matter was discussed in depth at the Traffic Management Meeting of 24th November 2005.  Given that there appears to be no consensus among residents as to whether landscaping or bollard installation is required (or both) it was decided that a further meeting is required with the residents representatives to determine an acceptable solution to this long running problem.

It was also pointed out to the Traffic Management Meeting that there are existing double yellow lines at this junction that are not being complied with.This matter will be referred to the Gardai for their attention.
