Clane-Maynooth Municipal District Meeting, Friday, 2 February 2024
Motion
That, with the Rural Junctions Project underway, the council assess the performance of the L2002 Millicent Road junction with the R407 at Bodenstown to address issues of movement towards the Sallins Bypass.
Agenda Report
The Council is currently working on the first 10 junctions countywide, with consultants now appointed, and design options for each junction are currently being worked on. Once those completed designs are available, Kildare County Council can determine the workload involved in the implementation of the various junction improvements, which will likely range from Low-Cost Safety Improvement to CPO/ Detailed Consent. In some cases, Department of Transport (DoT) funding will need to be sought. Once that work is done, Kildare County Council will be seeking advice from the DoT Support office in determining the next tranche of junctions to be considered. These will be evidence-based Locations of Interest (LOI) as determined by the Regional Road Network Safety Analysis. At that time, Kildare County Council will consult with the Municipal Districts to determine other junctions of concern that might warrant inclusion. It is likely, given capital programme pressures, that the next tranche will consist of 5 additional junctions countywide.
Issued by: Mr. S Deegan, Senior Engineer, Roads Projects.
