COMHAIRLE CONTAE FHINE GALL
FINGAL COUNTY COUNCIL
BALBRIGGAN/SWORDS AREA COMMITTEE MEETING
[Services A – Operational Matters]
Thursday, 14th February 2019
ITEM NO. 79
Motion: Councillor B. Dennehy
"This Committee calls upon the Chief Executive to prioritise the installation of a
foot bridge over the Brook Stream, Rush as a stand-alone project, due to the fact
that absolutely no progress has been gained for the project by either being part
of the coastal erosion project or in its previous incarnation as the coastal Walk
Way, yet in the meantime, permissions are being granted up stream which
increase the volume of surface water in the stream making crossing it even
harder."
Report:
Fingal County Council Development Plan contains a specific objective to develop
a Coastal Greenway from Newbridge Demesne to North Balbriggan. A Consultant
is being appointed by the Planning and Strategic Department to design this
coastal greenway and the feasibility of including this location in a possible route
for the footpath and cycle way will be explored as part of the design process.
