QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor Carly Bailey

To ask the manager in relation to the fantastic news that €18,158,48.00 of NTA funding for 2022 Active Travel Schemes approved for SDCC, how much of the total amount will be allocated to the Rathfarnham-Templeogue LEA and how much to the Firhouse-Bohernabreena LEA? Can we get a breakdown of the projects intended for use of this funding and get a sense of a timeline as to when projects may begin and be completed by, subject to any necessary planning processes.

REPLY:

The full funding breakdown for 2022 from the NTA is listed in the table attached to this reply.

As some of these schemes cross LEA boundaries or they are county wide schemes, so it is not possible to accurately give a breakdown for each LEA.

Also, the Consultation and Planning processes for schemes makes it difficult to give exact timelines.

The below sets out the current estimated timelines for the LEA and countywide schemes;
