QUESTION NO. 13

QUESTION: Councillor Eoin Ó Broin

To ask the Chief Executive if he would be willing to engage with the developer of SD20A/0234 on Watery Lane, wrt to the creation of a temporary waiting space for those waiting at bus stop #4664 to stand or sit? Currently the footpath at this location can be blocked by those waiting at the bus stop due to there being no waiting area set back from the footpath?

REPLY:

 An Bord Pleanala granted permission for application SD20A/0234 on Watery Lane, condition 9 required the submission of a Construction Management Plan. This type of document would address the type of concerns identified in the above question. A Construction Management Plan was submitted on October 25th for the written agreement of the Planning Authority. It was referred to the Transportation Section as experts in this area. The Planning Authority must indicate whether or not it agrees the Construction Management Plan by December 19th. The Traffic Section will carry out a site visit and engage with the developer on the identification of an alternative space for the bus stop if insufficient space is provided for.
