MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, June 23, 2025

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor J. Spear

"Would it be possible to install a footpath from Ballymount Park to Red Cow Luas? You can only get to this major transport hub via Luas or car, even though it's a walkable distance. There's already a footpath in Ballymount Park, so new works would be to extend this from there to Red Cow, allowing people to walk to this transport hub. Please see attached image of Google map location (it's even labelled "walk through from Red Cow Luas?"

REPLY:

There are no public lands in the ownership of South Dublin County Council between Ballymount Park and the LUAS Red Cow park and ride site.  It is not possible for the Council to provide a pedestrian path between these two locations.
