MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, May 23, 2017

QUESTION NO. 11

QUESTION: Councillor V. Casserly

"To ask the Chief Executive what formula is used to determine how many accessible parking bays are allocated in the Lucan Palmerstown LEA and have management plans to develop further accessible parking to meet demand in the area?"

REPLY:

Accessible parking spaces are generally provided at a ratio of 1:25 of total spaces. They should also be located in areas convenient to shops, post office, banks, credit unions, churches etc if possible. If designated accessible spaces are full, vehicles with valid disabled badges on display are permitted to park in ordinary spaces free of charge. At present there are 9 spaces in Lucan village, 8 spaces in Palmerstown village and 33 in Adamstown (provided by the developer).

If requests for additional spaces are received these requests will be considered.
