As You Were? I Don't Think So………
Established 1967 www.lucannewsletter.ie Online Only Sunday 5th July 2020 As you were? I don’t think so……… The global pandemic, has had a shattering effect on humanity. This deadly virus, has made no exceptions, its ugly presence has wounded Princes, Prime Ministers, celebrities, parents, grandparents, siblings, husbands, wives, colleagues and especially the most vulnerable in our society, the elderly and those whose health was already compromised. Living in a time of pandemic, has been difficult, lockdown and necessary restrictions meant that the ordinary things we once took for granted now are precious moments filled with gratitude as we return to a “New Normal”. As Church and members of Christ’s Body, we have felt the pain of a physical disconnection from our place of Worship but we too have discovered resilience, consolation and hope in the presence of Jesus, whose intimate affection for us thankfully does not require any social distance. Christ’s presence, has been felt by the heroic staff in our health service, Gardai, retail workers, postal service to name but a few of the many agencies who personified Christ, whose empathy in the Gospel tells “of Course I want to heal you”. Since the start of Lockdown, I have celebrated 25 funerals. I pray for all families whose bereavement was so difficult because of the restrictions in place as a result of Covid-19. May they rest in peace. It has been so difficult not to be able to celebrate Mass publically. Whist engagement with the online was a vehicle to communicate, nothing can compare to the personal encounter that we now can return to after almost four months. -

The project description is detailed in Chapter 2 of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and includes a number of development sites: within – or associated with – the main project site on the campus of St. James’s Hospital, Dublin 8: o a new children’s hospital and associated Family Accommodation Unit, sited in the west of the campus; o a new Children’s Research and Innovation Centre sited along James’s Street; o associated works to boundaries, roads, entrances, parking areas, hard and soft landscaping etc. within the application site boundary; and o a temporary construction compound, directly associated with the above developments at St. James’s Hospital Campus, at Davitt Road, Drimnagh, Dublin 12. 8-1 a new children's hospital satellite centre at Tallaght Hospital, Dublin 24; and a new children's hospital satellite centre at Connolly Hospital, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15. This Chapter provides a description of the existing hydrogeological and hydrological environments for each of the project sites, and a statement of the likely impacts associated with both the construction and operation phases of the National Paediatric Hospital Project.

SHEET NUMBER 50 GSI BEDROCK 1:100,000 SHEET NO. 16 Outline Site Description This site comprises a river which flows northwards through Dublin City and into the Liffey; most of its course has been diverted underground. Geological System/Age and Primary Rock Type The river flows across low permeability glacial till along its course, having formed in post- glacial times over the last 11,000 years. Main Geological or Geomorphological Interest The river is interesting in that the majority of its course within the city is underground. After flowing through Kimmage and Mount Jerome, the river is split at "The Tongue" at Mount Argus monastery in Harold's Cross, with one third of the flow forming the second section of the City Watercourse, heading for Crumlin Road and Dolphin's Barn, and two thirds continuing along a form of the original river bed. In the 1990s, changes were made in the Kimmage area, including the addition of a large fountain to the river. The line of the two Poddle flows later recombine and pass under much of the south city centre in a culvert. -

Traffic and Transport
River Poddle Flood Alleviation Scheme EIAR Main Report, PART II TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT Introduction This chapter was prepared by Nicholas O’ Dwyer Ltd. and considers the likely traffic and transport impacts associated with the construction and operation of the proposed River Poddle Flood Alleviation Scheme. After setting out the methodology to be followed, this chapter describes the existing environment and the main works in the proposed Flood Alleviation Scheme that are of relevance to roads and traffic. The chapter then presents a consideration of the likely significant impacts of the proposed scheme on traffic and the transport and the measures proposed where necessary to mitigate the impacts, and any residual impacts. The dominant traffic impact will be during the construction stage. The operational stage will have no discernible increase in traffic from Council and OPW staff who will carry out maintenance checks and works. This will approximate the current situation. Therefore, the assessment focuses on the traffic impacts associated with the construction phase of the proposed project. The substantial works proposed as part of the Scheme will be at three locations: Tymon Park, Whitehall Park / Wainsfort Manor Crescent, and Ravensdale Park. These locations will require access from the public roads for Heavy Construction Vehicles (HCVs) and Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) for the duration of the works as described in the sections below. There will be no exceptional loads. Other works will involve the construction of new walls or the replacement or reinforcement of existing walls in multiple points along the River. These works areas will be accessed by small teams of workers who will park equipment and trailers either within a works/set down area or on the public roads nearby. -

DUBLIN to 1610 Among the Cities and Towns of Ireland, Dublin Is Exceptional

It was the ways to penetrate this physical barrier via Bristol and Chester in the middle first place on the island to evolve into a settlement whose economy was ages and later via Holyhead and Liverpool.
