MOTION NO. 4

MOTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

That a discussion take place on the best way to promote the preservation and ultimate restoration of the Silver Bridge, linking Palmerstown Waterstown/Strawberry Beds.

REPORT:

Members of this ACM will be aware from previous reports on similar items relative to the Silver Bridge that this project is being delivered by Fingal County Council (FCC) as the owners of the bridge.

It is known that although FCC has completed a condition assessment and feasibility study of the bridge. However it is understood that it may be proving difficult to secure the amount of funding that would be required to deliver this project, and that there may be issues relating to the "landing" land ownership on both sides of the bridge.

Details of this motion, if passed, will be forwarded to FCC for consideration and reply.
