QUESTION NO.1

QUESTION: Councillor C. Brady

This committee calls on the manager to provide a comprehensive report on the Lucan Village Enhancement bundle of projects, including outlining the remaining tasks and their respective target completion dates.

REPLY:

The Lucan Public Realm Schemes include:

• The Village Green
• The Prominade, and
• The Demesne Park entrance

These projects are being progressed as one construction project which commenced at the end of September last year. The contract duration is 12 months and at this early stage is on programme.

The following should be noted.

• The site clearance, including tree removal, is completed.
• The next significant element of the works is commencement of undergrounding of the ESB network. This element of works requires duct installation in the roadways adjoining the site. Traffic management will be in place and some local congestion will occur. The contractor’s liaison will be in contact with traders regarding works arrangements and their relevant requirements.
• At the Demesne Park the new car park areas are available for public use and guidance to the access point to the park is provided as works are now in place at the former car park.
• Finally, the Lucan House damaged section of wall has been fully repaired, and protective barriers have now been removed from Leixlip Road.
