QUESTION NO. 6

QUESTION: Councillor L.Guéret

To ask the Manager for an update on the plans to place the Compound in Tymon Park at Limekiln Road for the duration of the Poddle Flood Alleviation Scheme Works?

REPLY:

The Site Compound for the River Poddle FAS is currently being placed in the location set out in the Part 10 Planning Application to An Bord Pleanala in February 2020. The compound will remain in place for the duration of the Tymon Park works and its suitability will be assessed when the works in Tymon Park are completed.

As the works are being completed in Tymon Park the required size of the compound will be continuously reviewed and when the scenario arises where it can be reduced in size, this will be considered by the project team.

The construction works in Tymon Park are to commence in April 2024 and are currently expected to take 18 months to complete.
