MOTION NO. 191

MOTION: Councillor B. Lawlor, Councillor V. Casserly, Councillor K. Egan, Councillor David McManus, Councillor Baby Pereppadan, Councillor S. O'Hara, Councillor L. McCrave

That the County Development Plan sets a target of installing a new, modern, bike racks in each of our villages.

REPORT:

This motion is overly specific for this stage of the Development Plan process. However, it is broadly supported by the CE Strategic Recommendations Promote and enable the delivery of infrastructure to increase the number of people walking and Cycling’ and ‘Support delivery of infrastructure associated with cycling to enable and encourage a greater take up and comfort of cycling in the County’.

Recommendation:  It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment to recognise that this type of objective is overly detailed for this strategic stage but could be considered as part of the draft plan preparation on foot of the strategic direction provided under the CE Recommendations:

Promote and enable the delivery of infrastructure to increase the number of people walking and Cycling’ and ‘Support delivery of infrastructure associated with cycling to enable and encourage a greater take up and comfort of cycling in the County’.
