That this Area Committee calls for a costing re the provision of a cyclist and pedestrian bridge at the N81/Old Bawn Rd junction. This would be a continuation of the cycle path along the Whitestown Stream/ Watergate Park leading onto the black path in Dominic's, and would need to be designed with minimal impact on the environment leading toward Dominic's bridge. |

Given that such a bridge would have a width of 5m to allow for pedestrians and two way cycling, a clearance of 5.5m above Old Bawn Road and ramp gradients of 1:20, its cost is likelt to exceed €1m. Detailed design particularly with respect to the culvert and services would provide more accurate guidance to this costing. |
