MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, May 24, 2016

MOTION NO. 22

MOTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

"This committee requests that the laneway network in Palmerstown be maintained to a satisfactory standard. They are public thoroughfares. As such they must be kept free from litter and dumping and the surface must be at a standard that makes it safe for pedestrians and cyclists as well as for cars. The surface has been allowed deteriorate in numerous places. They must be well lit."

REPORT:

"The laneways in Palmerstown are currently being swept by a Gateway crew but this work will cease when the Gateway project is over. The removal of litter and dumped material is carried out by the Public Realm section.

The laneways are not included for resurfacing in the 2016 programme. If the Councillor wishes to forward 1 or 2 locations, they can be considered for the 2017 programme.

It is not intended to put further public lighting in the laneways."
