Royal Canal Urban Greenway Royal Canal Urban Greenway Public Engagement on Emerging Preferred Route Fingal County Council is proposing to develop the Royal Canal Urban Greenway, which will provide a high quality, peaceful and safe route to serve Castleknock, Blanchardstown, Clonsilla, Coolmine and the wider Dublin 15 area. The proposed Urban Greenway will encourage recreation while offering an attractive alternative transport choice for school children and commuters, bringing significant environmental, economic and health benefits to the wider community. Conscious of the special place that the Royal Canal holds within the community, and its designation as a protected structure, the Urban Greenway aims to protect and enhance the existing environment along the corridor. An Emerging Preferred Route for the scheme is now available. Fingal County Council would welcome any comments you might have on the proposal and the project team looks forward to engaging with you to discuss the developing design and the next steps in the planning process. 1 N3 ngar Blanchardstown Centre Connolly ospital Co.eath Hansfield Ongar Distributor Road illenium Park H Co.ildare Scheme Clonsilla Road End Point LIN Existing Greenway DUB Scheme Start Westmanstown Clonsilla Royal Canal 1th Lock Point Castlenoc GWAY Scoil Choilm Coolmine Road Luttrellstown C.C eilip y ffe Li M4 M50 Co.ildare Co.Fingal Key Features • Respects environment and heritage • Sustainable links to Train Stations & buses • Improves recreation & tourist attraction • Links to cycle network • Improves connectivity • Safe pedestrian/cycle route Public Engagement 1.

Dublin 5 December 2007 Dear Sirs, On behalf of DUBLIN 15 COMMUNITY COUNCIL I wish to make the following observations on the Clonsilla Village Urban Centre Strategy, DUBLIN 15. The area is bounded by the Clonsilla Road to the North, the Maynooth rail line to the South, Clonsilla rail station to the West and the Dr Troy Bridge to the East. The intent of the strategy is to create a realistic vision for the future enhancement of the vitality and viability of the Village as an Urban Centre within Dublin 15, providing a framework to guide the formulation of future development proposals. We have structured our submission to address the issues for investigation in the strategy: o Proposals for the co-ordinated development of greenfield sites and future infill development o Creation of a network of safe pedestrian and cyclist routes o Traffic management and car parking strategy for the village o Potential of the Royal Canal as a local amenity and preservation of existing local heritage o Creation of a network of public open spaces and an enhanced public realm and character within the Village Dublin 15 Community Council Page 1 of 8 1.0 Current situation: Clonsilla Village has grown organically over a long period of time, in comparison with the rest of Dublin 15.
