QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Councillor M. Duff

"To ask the Chief Executive to please inform this Committee if he is aware of an expression of interest from BMX Ireland/Cycling Ireland in having an International Standard BMX Track built in Tymon Park, capable of hosting European/World Championship Events and would he indicate if this expression of interest is being considered for future development plans for Tymon Park?"

REPLY:

"An expression of interest has not been received with regard to a proposed BMX track at Tymon Park. However the Council are currently in discussion with BMX Ireland / Cycling Ireland with regard to a proposed BMX track at Dodder Valley / Mt Carmel. This project is still at the pre-planning stage and an environmental report is underway. This will inform both the feasibility and location for the track."
