QUESTION NO. 8

QUESTION: Councillor V. Casserly

"To ask the Chief Executive to facilitate a comprehensive and widespread public consultation on planned NTA-funded proposals for both Grangecastle Road/Woodies junction and Newcastle Road?"

REPLY: 

The Council intends to carry out modifications to the existing road layout on R136 (Outer Ring Road) and the R835 (Lucan Road) in the vicinity of Woodies in accordance with Section 38 of the Road Traffic Act 1994.

The Council has convened a meeting with Woodville residents and elected members for the Lucan area for 23 March 2017 to outline how the Works will encroach on the northern edge of the open space in Woodvile beside Lucan Road. 

The Council is currently reviewing their options for the SUPERVALU and Hillcrest junctions on Newcastle Road and has put in place measures to carry out traffic counts at these locations to assist with this. The elected members will then be briefed on the outcome.
