MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 27, 2017

QUESTION NO. 4

QUESTION: Councillor D. O'Brien

"To ask the Chief Executive for a report on how often the cycle lanes are cleaned in the Lucan area and if there is scope to improve how often they are cleaned?"

REPLY:

"Cycle lanes contained within the road carriageway on main roads are cleaned on a monthly basis as part of the Councils road sweeping contract which is currently held by Oxigen Environmental Ltd. Off road cycle lanes are cleaned by the Public Realm Section. The frequency of sweeping of cycle lanes in the Lucan area is twice per month. Additional sweeping can be scheduled where warranted and this can arise in instances where debris or glass is found on cycle paths."
