MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, November 22, 2022

MOTION NO. 20

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

This committee asks that Chief Executive arranged for the Newcastle road to be resurfaced. Parts of the road are covered in deep potholes, multiple dips in the road, loose shores causing noise disturbance in homes close by. To request that a report be provided on how many times the road has been resurfaced per year for the last 10 years.

REPORT:

Prior to 2020 no major resurfacing works were carried out on Newcastle Road just patching in various locations.

In 2020 Supervalu roundabout and section leading of it to Canonbrook was resurfaced

In 2021  Section from Lucan Sarsfields to Adamstown Ave was resurfaced

In 2022 Section from Hansted Park entrance to just past entrance to Finnstown estate was resurfaced.

In the coming months we intend to resurface the Hillcrest estate entrance.

With regards to the deep potholes, multiple dips in the road and loose shores, we would greatly appreciate specific locations so that an inspection can be carried out and any defects rectified
