- there has been calls from residents and public representatives alike for the installation of safe pedestrian crossings at Herberton and Suir road bridges for the past six years at least

 

The South West Inner City and South East Area Committees agree that, as a matter of urgency, pedestrian crossings will be installed at these locations by Dublin City Council as part of the Covid-19 roads and traffic works being carried out to facilitate social distancing and public health and safety during the pandemic.

 

M.59    Councillor Maire Devine

M.60    Councillor Tina MacVeigh

In order to deal with the perpetual problem of litter caused by illegal dumping and bin bags being left out too soon before collection, this Area Committee agrees to:

·         Initiate an initiative to crack down on illegal dumping and premature placing of bins in the area of the Liberties that use bagged waste collection service

·         Issue a communication to residents to inform them of same, the responsibilities of residents in regard to the timely placing of waste for collection, the responsibilities of waste management companies as to the collection of waste

·         Enforcement of penalties for bagged waste left out prematurely or waste not collected as scheduled by waste management companies.

A group of residents who live in the environ of the Pimlico Green have, in response to escalating levels of noise, disturbance emanating from fireworks, bangers, fires lit and damage to the public domain, come together to develop a series of proposals to the local authority.
