Kevin MacMahon
Summary of Submission and Observation:
This submission commends the efforts made by the Council to improve parks and cycle infrastructure in the city, however, there is a concern that existing parks will be overlooked and will not receive any new investment works.
In particular this submission identifies the underlying issues at the Lough in terms of
• Traffic hazards for cyclists and vehicles at Hartlands bend and The Lough Road • Road too narrow for 2 lanes on approach to the Lough Church • Potential to amend Hartland save to one way system to improve traffic • Increased greening opportunities.
