MOTION NO.19

MOTION: Councillor J. Sheehy

To ask the Chief Executive install a flashing solar powered beacon at the ramp already installed on Cloverhill Road for safer crossing of pedestrians to access the bus stop opposite Palmerstown Way in line with Road Traffic (Bollards and Ramps) Regulations, 1988. Also may I please ask that the signage be re-evaluated to instruct motorists of the ramp ahead in both directions.

REPORT:

Civil works for the installation of a raised traffic light-controlled pedestrian crossing at Palmerstown Way on Cloverhill Road have been completed.

We are currently awaiting ESB Networks to carry out the necessary works to install an ESB pillar and provide a connection point for the new traffic signal infrastructure. Unfortunately, the traffic lights cannot be installed until ESB completes these works in coordination with the civil contractor.

The Traffic Section is in regular contact with ESB Networks to expedite this matter; however, we have not yet received a confirmed date for when these works will take place.

Please note that all required road markings for the ramp are already in place.
