MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, February 17, 2021

MOTION NO. 15

MOTION: Councillor Peter Kavanagh

"That this Area Committee calls for a report into traffic calming measures in Newcastle Village, and asks the Council to take any and all steps necessary to divert traffic bound for Greenogue away from Newcastle Village."

REPORT:

There are 10 sets of Bus Cushions and 3 Ramps to be installed in Newscastle Village shortly after the resumption of construction works halted due to Covid restrictions.

SDCC will undertake to carry out a study into the routes that HGV's are taking from the surrounding National Road network before accessing Greenogue Industrial area. Should we find that HGV's are using the Village as a shortcut or avoidance route and have no other reason to access the Village then measures will be explored in conjunction with Dublin Castle to eliminate such movements.
