MEETING OF COUNTY COUNCIL

QUESTION No. 7

QUESTION: Cllr. Fintan McCarthy

To ask the Manager where equipment used for the N4 widening scheme and the M50 widening scheme relating to the N4 interchange will be stored; whether there are any plans or whether any discussions have been held regarding the use of sites other than those named in the EIS; and if he will make a statement on the matter?

REPLY:

The contract for the N4 widening scheme has not  yet been signed.  

Due to the island nature of the works at the N4 Interchange (M50 upgrade scheme) the contractor intends to deliver most materials directly to the workfront and limited amounts of materials will be stored off site.   One such location is the site compound located at the old South Dublin County Council depot on the southside of the N4, now owned by Barkhill Properties.   This compound will be used in the main for accomodating the design and construction staff with limited materials stored on the site.
