COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, September 26, 2023

MOTION NO.22

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

To see an update from the manager on the Lucan Village Green upgrade

REPORT:

The design team encountered significant delays in procuring a contractor to carry out site investigations (SI) works. The SI contractor completed the investigation works in late June and subsequently provided a report which enabled the design team to make final adjustments to the detailed design. The tender documentation is now being finalised by the design team. This will enable us to commence the tender process for the appointment of a contractor in the coming weeks.

I anticipate that this will allow a contractor to commence in November and for the works to be completed before the end of 2024.

It is proposed to incorporate the construction of the new Public Realm Car Park, opposite the Lucan Demesne, into the construction contract as it will be necessary to complete this new park in advance of works commencing at the Lucan Demesne, to create the new plaza.
