MOTION NO. 14

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

That the Chief Executive reports if any further progress on creating an upgrade from link in Kew Park estate onto Celbridge road,R835 by way of steps/ramp following on previous motion discussed and agreed at area committee meeting in 2019. (See files attached)

REPORT:

The report that was noted at the ACM in March 2019 provided details on a consultation exercise that was previously carried out on 160 residents in Kew Park estate and the houses nearest the open space in Weston Meadow/Heights to obtain their views on two options.

(1) To remove and secure the access point from Kew Park onto the Celbridge Road.

or

(2)  To upgrade the access point by providing steps.

As a clear majority was not reached on the provision of a link the proposal did not proceed any further. There have been no further developments on this matter and the situation remains unchanged. There are no proposals to install steps or a ramp at this location.
