That the council re-allocate road space on the L1023 Ballinagappa Road approaching Main Street, Clane, to improve sustainable travel by replacing five in-line parking spaces with double yellow lines.
The motion was proposed by Councillor McEvoy and seconded by Councillor Farrelly.
A report was received from Transport, Mobility and Open Spaces informing the members if the members are in agreement, then a Section 38 process can be commenced.
