MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM / TEMPLEOGUE / FIRHOUSE / BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 10, 2023

MOTION NO. 6

MOTION: Councillor E. Murphy

To ask the Council to include the pathway adjacent to Scoil Treasa Firhouse on the programme of works. There is no public lighting on this pathway which is heavily used and is becoming overgrown.

REPORT:

The proposal to provide public lighting on the pathway along the boundary of Scoil Treasa which leads from Firhouse to Carrigwood has been raised with the Council's Public Lighting Section with regard to it's feasibility and likely cost.  There are high tension overhead power lines in close proximity to this footpath which may present difficulties with regard to the proposal. 

This item has been provisionally included on the draft public realm improvement works programme for 2023, subject to a favourable reply being received regarding the feasibility of the proposal.  The draft improvement works programme is included as a headed item on the agenda of this meeting.
