MOTION NO. 9

MOTION: Councillor Mary Seery-Kearney

During this time of crisis we have seen a significant increase in cycling and walking. It is essential that we encourage those who have used the quietness of roadway to become or return to cycling.  In order to facilitate this I am asking for the support of this Committee to hasten the implementation of all existing plans to advance cycling and walking and to consider the implementation of a mobility plan similar to that shown by Dublin City Council in the main roads in the areas of Rathfarnham, Templeogue, Greenhills and Perrystown. 

REPORT:

If this Motion is carried the Council will request that Members submit locations where they consider that measures like those used in DCC would be successful in SDCC and we will carry out a survey at each location to establish suitability from a technical point of view.

SDCC will then propose a trial installation of measures at suggested approved locations to assess the success or otherwise of the measures.
