HEADED ITEM NO. 14

 

Weight Restriction on roads between the Oval and the junction of Wheatfield Road/Kennelsfort Road

"At the December 2016 meeting of the Council the following Motion was passed by the members:

"That the 7.5t weight restriction on the estate roads between the Oval (R148) and the junction of Wheatfield road/Kennelsfort Road be replaced by a 3.5t restriction. This is very necessary given the narrow estate roads, the two Primary Schools and the three crèches within the estates as well as the above average percentage of older people, increased number of young people as well as its proximately to Stewarts Hospital and that there are support residents in some of the houses on these roads."

The consent of the Garda Commissioner has now been sought in respect of this change and her response is awaited. The committee will be kept advised of progress on the matter."
