Cathaoirleach's Business

That SDCC will develop a map or add to an SDCC APP to show the Dodder Valley Greenway, to include entry points, cycle parking, water fountains, electric bike charging, trishaw operating locations, accessible parking, seating, refreshment facilities, playgrounds, nature and biodiversity interest spots and other points of interest.

REPORT:

The Active Travel team has recently developed a dedicated website to provide information on active travel projects and the Cycle South Dublin Programme.

The website can be accessed at this weblink; Active Travel - SDCC

The mapping on the website shows the Dodder Valley Greenway. The locations of the bike parking stands across the county are being added to the mapping.

 All Public Realm facilities are mapped (playground, entrances, basketball/tennis courts, teen spaces, etc.). They are stored in GIS format and are also available to the organisation through ArcGIS online (a type of GIS cloud database). Anyone creating a map can access and use these files.

Public Realm facilities are mapped online and can be found here: Community Facilities - Ag teacht le chéile (arcgis.com) 

This map also includes paths and routes within Parks, such as the Dodder Greenway.
