MOTION NO.

MOTION: Councillor D. O'Donovan, Councillor E. O'Brien, Councillor E. Murphy, Councillor Yvonne Collins, Councillor Shane Moynihan

That the Manager amends Chapter 7, Table 7.5 to include Ballyboden Road/Stocking Lane (R115) upgrade.

REPORT:

 The motion proposes to move the following objective ‘Ballyboden Road/Stocking Lane (R115); Upgrade of existing road; To enhance pedestrian and cycling facilities and exploit the tourist potential of the route’ from its current location in Table 7.6 ‘Medium to Long-Term Road Objectives’ to Table 7.5 ‘Six Year Road Programme’.

It should be noted that there are likely to be considerable complexities associated with this project owing to the significant length of the road involved and the sensitive nature of the rural landscape for much of the route.

It is considered that the relocation of the Ballyboden Road/Stocking Lane (R115) Upgrade from its current location in Table 7.6 ‘Medium to Long-Term Road Objectives’ to Table 7.5 ‘Six Year Road Programme’ is acceptable.

Recommendation: It is recommended that the motion is adopted.
