Making Room for the River Dodder Thesis Statement Mitigating against flood risk, biodiversity loss and climate change by restoring the River Dodder’s natural floodplain and habitats. Returning the land to the river and adapting to climate change. Alix Bent Landscape Studio 4B 2020 Abstract Our river ecosystems are struggling to manage the increased storm water runoff caused by climate change and the consequent loss of biodiversity coupled with the social and financial costs for residential homes along the river banks. This thesis illustrates how landscape interventions can safeguard the River Dodder from the impact of climate change by expanding its floodplains, while enhancing the natural characteristics of the river for recreation and conservation. The landscape developments proposed for the site areas at Rathfarnham Shopping Centre and Oldbawn have been inspired by some of the successful river projects undertaken in Europe. i CONTENTS Pages 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 5 DESIGN PROCESS 19 5.1 Selection of Sites along the Dodder 5.2 Landscape Development Influences 5.3 Management of Upstream Areas 2 INTRODUCTION 2 5.4 Re-wilding and Tree planting to prevent Floodplain 5.5 Site 1.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The climate and biodiversity crisis that the world faces today, recognised in the various declarations made by an increasing number of countries since May 2019, (Cunningham, 2019) means action must be taken, sometimes drastically to mitigate its potentially disastrous effects. Climate change has a direct effect on the hydrological cycle, as it intensifies, as air temperatures increase, more water evaporates; warmer air also holds more water vapour, which consequently leads to more intense rainstorms, causing more problems such as increased and more frequent flooding around the world. (Climate Reality, 2016) Climate change has also led to habitat loss, biodiversity loss, and pollution, which in turn contributes to climate change. (Harvey, 2018) I am particularly interested in the potential of restoration and improvement of degraded river systems in adapting to climate change, and how the creation of floodplains can be used in landscape developments to create more sustainable environments, protection of biodiversity and natural habitats. Rivers flowing through densely populated counties like Dublin, present particularly challenging issues around rainwater runoff generated by a combination of climate change and residential and commercial development. The Dodder is one such river in Dublin that faces all these challenges. To inform my thinking on this subject I have researched the principles of how to mitigate and adapt to increased flooding of rivers. I have also looked at the effects of rainwater runoff on the environment, in both a local and global context; how climate change can be mitigated and managed, and how environments can be adapted by restoring the natural ecosystems providing much needed amenities to residential developments. This thesis will analyse examine and review how countries like Switzerland The Netherlands and have successfully developed landscape solutions to allow rivers to expand their flood plains to cater for increased rainfall and at the same time create amenities that will not only benefit people but will also increase biodiversity for plants and wildlife. I have chosen the River Dodder as my test site for my thesis. It is an important and beautiful river in County Dublin struggling to cope with the effects of climate change. The River Dodder is critical for rainwater runoff and a much-loved amenity for many Dubliners. Extensive flooding of this river in recent years has given rise to significant environmental and social issues including the destruction and contamination of wildlife and residential homes along its 27km course. (Google Maps, 2019) The thesis aims to illustrate how extensive tree planting and creative landscape development can give more space to allow the River Dodder to flood safely along its course route while enhancing and reinforcing the natural characteristics of the river for both recreation and conservation purposes. Having fully considered the course route of the Dodder I have chosen two sites, one at Old Bawn, Tallaght and the other at Rathfarnham Shopping Centre which I believe with creative landscape development can significantly improve the rivers floodplains and surrounding habitats for the benefit of all. 1 2.

    Update on River Dodder Greenway RPS Group Have Recently Been

    Update on River Dodder Greenway RPS Group have recently been appointed by Dublin City Council to carry out the options development, preliminary design and the statutory planning process for a 7.5km section of the River Dodder Greenway, from Sir John Rogerson’s Quay at Forbes Street to the boundary with South County Dublin at Orwell Park. The overall route is referred to as the River Dodder Greenway – From the Sea to the Mountains in the initial feasibility study carried out by ROD/AECOM in 2012, which runs from the quays to the foot of the Dublin Mountains at Bohernabreena. The greenway forms Route S03 under the Greater Dublin Area Cycle Network Plan, which is classed as both Dublin Primary and Greenway under this plan. This section of the route will run mostly along the banks of the River Dodder, from its mouth at Grand Canal Dock, through Ringsend, Lansdowne, Ballsbridge, Donnybrook, Clonskeagh, Milltown, Dartry, Churchtown and Rathfarnham, then joining with the section through South County Dublin which has recently been through planning. The route will cross into Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown in the vicinity of Clonskeagh, Milltown and Churchtown. It is intended that the route will utilise the various parks along the corridor, including Herbert Park, Dartry Park, Orwell Park, and the linear parks between Clonskeagh and Milltown. The general principle of the scheme is to provide an attractive leisure and commuter cycle route that would be on par with other routes of its kind in Europe. To achieve this a holistic design approach has to be exercised, taking into account not only journey times and comfort of cyclists but also various other aspects including but not limited to, consideration of pedestrians and local walkers, impact on flora and fauna, benefiting local communities through enhancing existing and providing new amenities, increasing accessibility to and providing good connectivity between local businesses, village centres, and other cycle paths.
