MOTION NO. 25

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

To call on the manager to consider extending the carpark at Griffeen Valley Park, Haydens Lane entrance to address overflow and increased usage of our local park

REPORT:

The car park at Haydens Lane has a total of 72 parking bays. 3 of these are designated accessibility bays and 3 are occupied by recycling banks. In addition, there is an area assigned for motorbikes and 4 bicycle stands. To date no requests for additional car parking facilities have been received. In order to consider an increase in the size of the car park, a demonstrated need for additional car parking spaces would need to be made. A survey of the car park will be carried out to determine level of usage over the summer months. The survey will also consider parking on surrounding roads and the availability of the car park at particular times of the day.  

Any proposal to increase the size of the car park is subject to a site survey and the identification of a source of funding.
