Avenue de Rennes: Construction on the east side of Avenue de Rennes is ongoing but close to substantial completion. We are providing new footpaths with high-quality paving, a segregated 2-way cycle track and new public lighting. Colorful bollards have now been installed at the entrance to Scoil na Croise Naofa and works to provide the new Protected Junction arrangement with Ringmahon Road are ongoing. A Protected Junction is a junction where pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles are separated from each other as they move through the junction, making the junction safer for all road users, and particularly for those on bicycles. Works have been completed on the west side on of Avenue de Rennes by Holy Cross Church, where the main entrance to the Church has been widened and access arrangements from the roadway have been improved. Works have also been completed on the Toucan crossing which forms part of the Quiet Route which traverses Avenue de Renne at the junction with Mahon Drive & Lakeland Crescent. The proposed works on the parking/landscaped areas have commenced as has the carriageway re-surfacing between Lakeland Crescent and the junction with Skehard Road. These works were scheduled during the school mid-term break. As the new drainage network, ducting for services and street lighting, footpaths, kerbs and segregated cycle tracks are completed along the remainder of the street, the provision of new road surfacing and landscaping will follow. In particular, ornamental landscaping will be provided at several locations. Tree planting will commence at the end of February 2025.
