COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

South Dublin County Council Crest

MEETING OF LUCAN/PALMERSTON/NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 26, 2021

MOTION NO. 3

MOTION: Councillor Alan Hayes

To ask the Chief Executive to identify and apply for all possible grants in 2021 to install a pedestrian & cycleway entrance from Balgaddy to Thomas Omar road for children attending Kishogue and Griffeen post primary schools.

REPORT:

SDCC have previously sought funding for this scheme from NTA without success. The Council has again included this scheme on the provisional list of schemes for funding by the NTA in 2021. The council is currently waiting for final approval of the list of works by the NTA. Installing permeability at this location will require substantial works due to difference in levels between Thomas Omar Way and the estate. This may require installing long ramps and a staircase to achieve universal accessibility.
