MOTION NO. 17

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

That this Area Committee requests the Chief Executive write An Garda Siochana asking for a report on how many fines (if any) have been issued in relation to those driving through The HGV restricted area along the Newcastle Road. In addition, to ask Chief Executive to make comment on whether there will be increased use of HGV along the R120 when the road widening/upgrade is completed?

REPORT:

A letter will be written to AGS regarding the number of fines issued if motion is passed.

There is no specific plan to increase HGV traffic on the R120 as a result of the works. If drivers of this class of vehicle make a voluntary decision to use an alternative route including the R120, we cannot control this decision making.
