COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF CLONDALKIN, NEWCASTLE, RATHCOOLE, SAGGART AND BRITTAS AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, April 15, 2026

MOTION NO. 15

MOTION: Councillor W. Carey

That this Area Committee gives priority to repair of footpaths on Oak Rise Greenpark. There are mature trees lining the street and have lifted the footpaths here. These are causing trip hazards all along this street and have, due to apparent oversight, not been addressed in recent years. In particular, the large tree outside ADDRESS SUPPLIED has roots entering drains and telecom service boxes.

REPORT:

Road Maintenance will list this location for consideration for future footpath programmes. 

As stated the major issue on this road is tree roots and we will liaise with our public realm section on whether removal of these trees is necessary or not
