SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 14

MOTION: Councillor E. Higgins

"Can the Council present a traffic management plan for Rathcoole village to future-proof residents and commuters as the village continues to grow."

REPORT:

Please refer to the County Development Plan for map guidance to this written report.

The CDP shows a long term objective (road) that could be delivered in stages from Adamstown to Newcastle to Keatings Park Interchange on the N7 to Stoney Lane to the south of Rathcoole and Saggart and up to the N81 (west of the Embankment).

The element of this long term objective that runs north and south from a new Rathcoole interchange at Keatings Park would be key to solving Rathcoole's traffic problems.

In addition, all the lands south of Rathcoole Park / Peyton estates and west of Fitzmaurice Road Public Open Space is zoned residential and any permission granted on it should include a road running from Stoney Lane ideally to Mill Road. This will involve CPO and material alteration of the CDP.
