COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL
MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE
Tuesday, February 26, 2019
QUESTION NO.14
QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole
"Following an agreement to design a photo montage for the planned Embankment Pedestrian/cycle way between Castle Riada and Moy Glas, could the Chief Executive advise when this will be completed?"
REPLY:
We have discussed the “Esker Embankment” scheme with the NTA and they have reiterated their previous position.
The Part 8 for the scheme as amended by the Elected Members at the Council Meeting on 10th December 2012 is not one that the NTA are willing to fund.
The NTA are still willing to provide funding for the scheme as originally proposed.
I have attached details of that scheme as originally proposed and I have included drawings which provide a montage impression of what the scheme would look like.
We have raised the question of getting funding from the NTA to enable new photo montages to be prepared as we do not have the in house resources to prepare such presentations.
The NTA will only consider funding for such work in the context of the original scheme (attached) being reconsidered for Part 8 Approval.
