MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor T. Costello

"To ask the manager what consideration has been given for the collection of waste from public litter bins in areas where new cycle lanes have been installed eg Firhouse Road West /Tymon / Killinarden - has any litter bins been removed due to the cycle lanes?"

REPLY:

During the design stage the Active Travel Section consult with the Public Realm Section to ascertain needs and requirements of bins along the new cycle infrastructure. During the construction it may be necessary for bins to temporarily be removed to facilitate construction but are reinstated once works are completed. In certain situations, bins may also be relocated to ensure they are serviceable by the Public Realm Section. No bins have been removed due to the installation of cycle infrastructure.
