MOTION NO. 7

MOTION: Councillor L. McCrave

To ask the Chief Executive can he provide revised schedule for the completion of the current phase of the Grange Road Cycle Scheme. The ongoing inconvenience and continuous missed deadlines is a source of frustration to residents and is taking the good out of the project. Please can you explain also in your reply, the nature of delays so that we may learn from this phase and prevent not only further delay to this phase but learn for future phases, of this scheme.

REPORT:

South Dublin County Council and our Contractor, Wills Bros Ltd., wish to advise that the current anticipated completion date for the Grange Road project is April 2022.

It is regrettable that delays have been encountered due to a significant amount of existing and historical services which have impacted the contractors’ progress.

The Contractor, at all times has carried out works as expeditiously as possible while ensuring the safety of pedestrians and site staff while keeping the road open to traffic.

The Council appreciate your patience in this matter and we look forward to a completed project which will improve the safety of all road users.
