MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, May 18, 2022

MOTION NO.13

MOTION: Councillor Eoin Ó Broin

That this area committee agrees that a section of the boundary wall along the southern side of the Fonthill Road in Clondalkin at the left turn onto St. John's Road West, be removed in order to improve visibility and line of sight for drivers exiting St Johns Park East or St Johns Park West onto St. Johns Road West. This matter has been previously discussed at TMM/21/089 (1671412) and modifications made to the junction. The issue of the wall is beyond what TMM cover.

REPORT:

The wall along the southern side of the Fonthill Road in Clondalkin at the left turn onto St. John's Road West would have been constructed in accordance with planning requirements at the time having regard to traffic sightline requirements.

The request for the removal of a section of boundary wall will be referred to the Traffic Section for their examination and advice as to what measures are required in order to provide adequate sight lines at this location.
