NRCC next monthly meeting

Our next monthly meeting will take place on Wednesday next 2nd May at 8.00 p.m. in the Parish Centre behind the Navan Road Church  –   All are welcome.

Information from DCC re works on Blackhorse Avenue –

“..works almost complete bar the following:-
  1.  A carriageway ramp half way between Lyndon Gate & Nephin Road;
  2.  New metal fencing around Poor Man’s Well;
  3.  Isolated snagging items.
Various repairs:-        Large hole in footpath on Ashtown Road beside Half Way House, finally filled and smooth to walk by safely – following about 3/4 years requests from us.
Very dangerous footpath repaired within Martin Savage Park,  following over 6-8 years of requests – one more still awaits repair.
New Pedestrian Crossing – Racecourse entrance, information from Fingal:-
“Some electric works to be completed,  and anti-skid surfacing works which were awaiting sufficient temperature rise for a successful application to road surface.”
We hope that this will improve safety for pedestrians once this new lights is commissioned.
