MOTION NO.10

MOTION: Councillor P. Cosgrave

That the Manager have the small round object removed from the Disabled parking bay at Rosemount S/C carpark. A local resident tripped on the round object while walking from Mass to the carpark. The Lady was badly hurt from the trip. The object should be removed as its dangerous.

REPORT:

The round object referred to is related to the development of an accessible parking app which involves  building an app through which registered  “Bluebadge” holders may access details of available disabled parking spaces from within an initial 19 identified locations strategically chosen across the county.    The locations will be shown on a map with real time information on how many of these spaces are free.

 Regrettably, following installation of the 19 surface mounted sensors safety issues were identified. As a result, these are now being replaced with flush-mount versions in order to mitigate against any risk to slips and trips.
