Summary of requested changes and alterations to the Draft CiDP:
The submission makes the following specific points: •
The Ballyphehane /Togher area has been identied as a RAPID area , Revitalising Area by Planning and Development, GBI study section 4.15 & Figure 4.6. As such a pedestrian and walking link from the area to TVP would merit prioritisation of investment in Green and Blue Infrastructure in this area. • Community Severance: the South Link rd. acts a physical barrier preventing people accessing TVP by active travel means. • Health benefits: GBI investment in this area would provide health and well-being benefits associated with more active travel. • Air Pollution: The South Link Rd has high levels of air pollution as stated in section 4.10 GBI study. Reducing levels of private vehicle traffic on the south link road accessing the TVP would help to improve air quality in the area • High Car dependency: The GBI study identified a key issue of high car dependency. A pedestrian and cycling entrance linked to the Togher river walkway would encourage more people to make journeys by active travel means.
