MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, June 23, 2025

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor M. Duff

"Could the Manager please inform this Area Committee as to when the pedestrian light pole, on the junction of Whitestown Way and Firhouse Road West, will be replaced, following its removal after a crash, some months ago?"

REPLY:

The Manager would like to inform the Area Committee that the replacement of the pedestrian light pole at the junction of Whitestown Way and Firhouse Road West has been scheduled for the week starting June 16th.

We understand this replacement has taken some time, and we apologise for the delay. The primary reason for the extended timeline was the need to source a specialised solar flashing light, which is not a standard stock item.

To prevent similar delays in the future, we have instructed our contractor to maintain a stock of these solar flashing lights. This will ensure that if any such light is damaged again, we can facilitate a much quicker replacement.
