QUESTION NO.3

QUESTION: Councillor R. Mannion

I would like to request an update on progress of works at Kiltipper Park and confirmation that both GAA and soccer pitches as well as the playground are nearing completion.

REPLY:

Phase 2 of improvements works recently commenced on site at Killtipper Park. The construction period of 9 months is subject to favourable ground and weather conditions. The works include the construction of an extended carpark, footpath and pedestrian entrance improvements at the northern side, GAA pitch construction and associated drainage works, construction of a new view point area, hedgerow rejuvenation works, and all ancillary site drainage and landscaping works. 

South Dublin County Council have proposed additional funding within the 2025 budget to allow for the extension of this contract to include the 2 No. planned soccer pitches and play space within this current phase of works. The rates are quite favourable and will allow this.
