COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, December 18, 2023

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor P. Holohan

"Will the council meet and engage with the residents of Whitestown way and Firehouse Road regarding the cycle ways installed to discuss the issues they are presenting with the traffic and people in the community?"

REPLY:

The D24 Neighbourhood Network scheme Phase 1 is currently under construction. A Public Consultation period was held in advance of the commencement; D24 Neighbourhood Cycle Network Scheme | South Dublin County Council's Online Consultation Portal (sdublincoco.ie)

Additionally the Active Travel project team provided briefings to Councillors and also met with residents, residents associations, Councillors, schools and other stakeholders. The attached report was provided to Councillors on foot of the issues raised which includes the amendments to the scheme.

Disruption during construction is minimised where possible by the contractor, who is supervised by the SDCC project engineer for the scheme who ensures that the contractor works within the agreed traffic management plan.

If there are specific concerns about the design we can review these and a deputation meeting could be arranged, we do not propose to arrange another full public meeting. Queries raised through the customer care system will also continue to be responded to as speedily as possible.
