MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, September 27, 2021

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor C. O'Connor

"To ask the CEO to now confirm plans for the provision of "Welcome to Tallaght" signs at each entry point to Tallaght as previously discussed and will he state when he expects to bring these proposals to the Tallaght Area Committee and make a statement?"

REPLY:

This is an extract from the adopted Signage Strategy Novemeber 2020.

"7.1      Tallaght Town Centre is the County’s capital. The intention is to provide a recognisable ‘Welcome to Tallaght’ sign at key entry and exit points to the County capital. The detailed design and location of this would have to be processed at the next stage of detailed design."

SDCC are tendering Consultants to carry out the design of "Welcome to Tallaght"  signs.  Once we have design options the Transport Department will come to the Tallaght ACM to discuss the options and agree the final design.  I estimate that we should have these designs by December 2021. Thereafter, next stage is the procurement and Installation of the signs of the signs.
