MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 4

MOTION: Councillor Joanna Tuffy

That the Chief Executive Officer to give an update to the Committee about the next steps in relation to the Lucan Village improvements, including in relation to aspects of the Part 8 scheme that, prior to its adoption as amended, were shared between the main street and village green, such as undergrounding of utilities, and the stone and paving in the approach to the entrance of the green, and if he will make a statement on the matter

REPORT:

Following the approval to proceed with the proposed works at Lucan Village Green, Demesne and Promenade, the SDCC project manager has met with the consultant design team and has requested that they develop the detailed design and commence the preparation of tender documents. That work is underway and it is anticipated that it will take approximately 3 months to complete.

In line with the amendment adopted to the Part 8, the planned works on Main Street relate solely to making provision for pedestrian corssings at either end of Main Street (close to AIB and to Bank of Ireland) which do not necessiate the removal of parking.

The proposals for the Village Green are unaltered, the paved areas at the north and south of the green will be included in the detailed design, as the provision of those areas do not impinge on parking.
