Development of approx. 2,780 metres of roadway within the boundaries of the Adamstown Strategic Development Zone, as defined by SI 272 of 2001. The proposed development seeks permission only for that portion of the roadways that lie between the roadside kerbs. The provisions of landscaping, footpaths and cycle paths etc, will be the subject of future planning applications as the design of the surrounding areas progresses. Specifically the proposed roads development includes for: (A) the construction of c.310m of road known as the 'Adamstown Station Access Road' to connect the site of the two Primary Schools (Ref SDZ06A/2) in the east with Adamstown Station in the West (Ref. SDZ04A/2); (B) the construction of c.1,342m of road known as Loop Road #1 (as defined in the Adamstown Planning Scheme), which generally connects the Adamstown Station and Adamstown Square Development Areas in the south with the development permitted under Reg. Ref. SDZ05A/2 in the north; (C) the construction of c.1,028m of road known as 'Loop Road Around Adamstown District Centre', (as defined in the Adamstown Planning Scheme) and designated in Roads A21A - D within the current planning application, connecting the development permitted under Reg. Ref. SDZ04A/1 in the east with the boundary of Adamstown SDZ in the west. The roads being included here are intended to meet some of the strategic infrastructural requirements for the development of Adamstown SDZ and will provide access for an ESB 110kV substation, subject to a separate application, located immediately outside the western boundary of the SDZ. It is also proposed to construct c.765m of twin foul drainage rising mains (500m and 350mm diameter). These are to be located within Road A21A (part of the 'Loop Road Around Adamstown District Centre') and within a portion of Loop Road #1. The proposed rising mains will connect to the rising main infrastructure permitted under planning Reg. Refs. SDZ04A/1, SD04A/0964 (PL06S.211506) and SDZ06A/2. Site development works including the provision of surface water drainage, and water supply pipework to serve future surrounding development, are also proposed as part of this application. This application is being made in accordance with the provisions of Adamstown Planning Scheme 2003. The lands fall entirely within the boundaries of Adamstown Strategic Development Zone as defined by Statutory Instrument no. 272 of 200 all on lands of c.5.58 hectares at lands bounded generally to the north by the development permitted under Planning Reg.
