MOTION NO.23

MOTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

Can the pedestrian entrance at the southern end of Palmerstown Manor be examined with a view to provision of e pedestrian footpath for people approaching from the Coldcut side. At present they have to cross the carriageway/junction to continue on into the Estate.

REPORT:

The lands on the southern side of the access road into Plamerstown Manor are in private ownership. See the Taking in Charge map attached to this Motion.  Areas Taken in Charge are highlighted in yellow on the attached map. 

Therefore, it is not in SDCC's power to deliver a footpath at this location.

There is a footpath on the northern side of the access road into Palmerstown Manor.  Pedestrians do have to cross the road if approaching from the south.  The traffic section are satisfied that sufficient pedestrian connections exist at this location.
