MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE-TERENURE AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, March 08, 2016

QUESTION NO.3

QUESTION: Councillor D. Looney

"To ask the Chief Executive for an update on a new signage scheme for suburbs under the remit of this Committee, as noted under Item 46731 at the November 2015 Council meeting, and to make a statement on the matter?"

REPLY:

Village signage incorporating "welcome" signage and tourism and heritage/wayfinding signage is due to be rolled out over the next 2 - 3 years at a number of villages throughout South County Dublin. Rathfarnham and Templeogue are included in these plans.

This project is being rolled out by the Economic, Enterprise and Tourism Directorate in conjunction with the Architect's Department. A pilot wayfinding/heritage signage project has been undertaken in Tallaght in 2015.

Work is ongoing in relation to the other villages including Rathfarnham and Templeogue but as yet there is no definite timescale for implementation.

We respectfully request that all future enquiries are directed to the appropriate departments above.
