MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, July 08, 2024

QUESTION NO.33

QUESTION: Councillor E. Murphy

To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the progression of the signage for Greenways in the County as passed at a full Council in 2023.

REPLY:

South Dublin County Council appointed the specialist consultants to advise and assist in the development of the County Signage Strategy and the design of signage.

The development of proposals for the broad parameters for signage in parks across the county has now been completed. This will provide a suite of signage options for projects within Parks. Proposals have been finalised to carry out the initial trial in Kiltipper Park. As Kiltipper Park also contains a section of the Dodder Greenway, consideration has also been given to the way finding and orientation signage for Greenways.

As part of the delivery of the Dodder Greenway, corten steel frames have been installed onto which some of signage will be installed.

The procurement process has been significantly delayed, however a tender for suppliers and contractors will be issued for Kiltipper Park in July 2024, for manufacture and installation of these types of signs.
