Revision of the position of the visual navigational aids (runway markings); and the decommissioning of part of a parrallel taxiway.

Dublin Weston Airport, Junction 5, M4, Lucan, Co. Dublin

Centrally relocate the existing Runways 07 and 25 to midway between the airport boundaries, incorporating the existing stopway, to include the provision of Precision Approach Path Indicators (PAPIs). This will also include Runway End Safety Areas of 180 Metres. The change in runway layout will retain the present runway category (ICAO Code 2b) and aerodrome licensing requirements on aircraft size. Nothing in this application increase the size or capacity of aircraft to that currently using the airport. The runway distance will be 1199 Metres, the full extent of ICAO Code 2b limitations. This is Necessitated by the landing distance restrictions imposed by the use of Precision Approach Path Indicators (PAPIs). The runway declared operational distances, as published in Aeronautial Information Publication Ireland, will not be increased by this application. This application is made solely in the interest of increased safety standards and the promotion of noise abatement. An EIS has been prepared in relation to this application.

The repositioning of existing fuel tanks used for the storage of aviation fuels ( Jet A1 and AvGas) and the upgrading of bund walls and security fencing surrounding these tanks. In addition, the existing emergency access gate from the private road is to be repositioned and converted for use to access this bunded fuel storage, and a replacement emergency access gate, also onto the private road, is to be provided immediately to the west of the repositioned gate.
