MOTION NO.9

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

This committee brings forth this motion requesting the necessary works to be carried out along the road L1018, locally known as Dodsboro Hill, as follows: Cutting Back Overgrown Hedge: We urge the council to address the overgrown hedge along Dodsboro Hill, as it poses an obstruction and safety concern to pedestrians. Clearing Overgrown Debris on Footpath: The committee requests the removal of overgrown debris on the footpath, as highlighted in a member's report. This evidence underscores the narrowness of the footpath due to the overgrowth. Relocation of a bus stop: Considering changes in the bus network, the relocation of the bus stop to the bottom of Dodsboro Hill has resulted in locals having to walk down this road. Therefore, we propose necessary adjustments to ensure the safety and convenience of pedestrians in light of this change. These proposed works are essential to enhancing the safety and accessibility of Dodsboro Hill for the residents who regularly navigate this route.

REPORT:

Road Maintenance will arrange for the cutting back of vegetation and the edging of footpaths along this stretch in the coming weeks
