MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, April 27, 2026

QUESTION NO. 10

QUESTION: Councillor J. Spear

"Can the manager please provide an update on upgrading public lighting in St. Aongus estate in Tallaght to LED lights?" Please provide an estimate on when the upgrades will be finished.

REPLY:

This estate was originally planned for upgrade in 2025. However, this upgrade, similar to some other estates in the county, has been delayed due to complications on site requiring civil works for completion and also ESBN resources.

It now forms part of our 2026 programme and we hope to complete it before the end of this summer. 

It is also anticipated that in the coming weeks, ESBN will shortly provide the additional 3rd party contractors it has already committed to providing. This will considerably speed up the overall completion of our upgrade programme.
