[SDZ04A/3 forms part of this application]. Construction of the Adamstown Link Road linking the proposed development of Adamstown in the west with the Outer Ring Road (Adamstown Roundabout) in the east. The proposed road, will be c.2,075 metres in length and will be constructed to include for: a 3.25m wide dedicated bus lane in each direction; and a 3.25 metre wide traffic lane in each direction; separated by a 1 metre wide central median, together with associated footpaths, verges and cycle paths on either side as appropriate. Pedestrian crossing points are to be provided at chainages CH.137, CH.730, CH.1590, and CH.2048 on this new road. Two eastbound bus stops are to be provided at chainages CH.40 and CH.765, whilst westbound bus stops are to be provided at chainages CH.80 and CH.695, with provision for possible further future bus stop locations in positions to be determined at a later date by others. The project includes the provision of a vehicular access point at project chainage CH.1605, to South Dublin County Council owned development lands located immediately south west from the Adamstown Roundabout on the Outer Ring Road. Culverts for the streams and rivers along the route, including the Griffeen River and the Kilmahudrick Stream, are to be constructed at project chainages CH.730, CH.785, CH.815 and CH.980. Attenuation ponds are to be constructed near the Griffeen river culvert in Griffeen Valley Park and these ponds will be landscaped for use as public amenity lands. Permission is also sought for the construction of c.1950 metres of twin 500mm diameter foul drainage rising mains within the reservation of the proposed Adamstown Link Road. This main will be laid in the southern verge and will run from project chainage CH.235 to the point where it crosses the Outer Ring Road in the vicinity of the Adamstown Roundabout, east of project chainage CH.2070. The proposed development also involves the re-alignment of the R120 Newcastle Road over a distance of approx 545 metres from a point approx 45 metres north of the junction of the R120 with the Hanstead housing development to a point c.305 metres south of the existing bridge over the Dublin - Kildare rail line. A new 52-metre long road bridge on the re-aligned R120 will be constructed over the rail line and the proposed Adamstown Link Road. The new bridge, will allow for the proposed future four tracking of the rail line by Iarnrod Eireann. The re-aligned R120, including the new bridge, will consist of a 2.25m wide cycle / footpath on both sides, a 2.0m wide verge on both sides, and a 3.5m wide traffic lane in each direction with a central painted island of 2.0m. The existing bridge is to be retained. The development will require the closure of Hayden's Lane to vehicular traffic at a point approx 60 metres north of the existing bridge over the rail line. The crossing will remain open to pedestrians and cyclists via a pedestrian crossing of the Adamstown Link Road and a new ramped access to tie into the existing bridge over the rail line. This existing bridge is to be retained. In order to facilitate access to the lands currently served by Hayden's Lane, it is proposed to construct a new road, known as the Hayden's Lane Access Road, linking the R120 Newcastle/Lock Road with Hayden's Lane. This road will be approx 485 metres long and will run from a point approx 185 metres to the south of the new bridge over the railway on the re-aligned R120, to a point on Hayden's Lane c.122 metres south of the existing bridge over the railway. The scheme will include traffic management improvement measures at the junction with the R120 to accommodate the existing adjoining vehicular access. The proposed road to be constructed, is to include for a 1.8 metre wide footpath on both sides, a 1.5 metre wide cycle path on both sides, and a 3.0 metre wide traffic lane in each direction. A new mammal underpass is to be constructed in the new Hayden's Lane Access Road at chainage CH.170. Twin oversized pipes are to be used for the attenuation requirements of the new R120 realignment and the new Hayden's Lane Access Road. The proposed development involved the demolition of a habitable dwelling 'Avoca' located on the R120 Lock Road/Newcastle Road some 140 metres south of the existing bridge over the rail line. The development will also require minor amendments to the boundaries of the development permitted under Planning Reg. Ref. S01A/0664 (known as Hanstead) and the development proposed under Planning Reg. Ref. SDZ04A/1, at the points where these developments abut the R120 Lock Road/Newcastle Road. These minor revisions are required in order to facilitate the embankments for the proposed bridge over the Adamstown Link Road and the Rail Line on the R120. Site development and landscape works including the construction of appropriate boundary walls and fencing also form part of this application. An Environmental Impact Statement accompanies this application.
