Grange Road, Rathfarnham, Dublin 16

Proposed Development

Provision by South Dublin County Council of a cycling and walking scheme and public realm improvement scheme from Nutgrove Avenue in the north along Grange Road to Taylors Lane in the south. The project involves the construction and upgrading of a walking and cycle scheme and public realm improvement scheme on Grange Road, in Rathfarnham Dublin 14 & 16. The proposed public realm improvements are adjacent to a number of Protected Structures. Grange Road represents an important link in the Greater Dublin Area Cycle Network Plan as it is crossed by Primary Route S05 and Secondary Route 10B runs along it. Primary Route S05 is a proposed radial route stretching from Dun Laoghaire to the N4. The recently constructed Grange Downs Shared Pedestrian and Cycle Facility forms part of this route linking Rathfarnham to Dundrum/Churchtown. A new pedestrian entrance and plaza are proposed at the corner of St Enda’s Park and junction with space with Sarah Curran Avenue. The development will primarily consist of off road cycle tracks, wider pedestrian routes and landscaping. The scheme is funded by the National Transport Authority under its Sustainable Transport Grants Scheme. The Public realm improvements will be funded by South Dublin County Council. Plans and particulars of the proposed scheme will be available for inspection or purchase at a fee not exceeding the reasonable cost of making a copy from Thursday 3rd of December to Wednesday 10th February 2016 at the following locations: South Dublin County Council Offices, County Hall, Tallaght, Dublin 24 between the hours of 9:00 am -5.00pm Monday to Thursday and 9.00am -4.30pm on Friday (Inspection and purchase); Whitechurch Library, Taylor’s Lane, Ballyboden, Dublin 16, Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday 2.00pm to 5.00pm and 6 to 8pm.
