I raised this issue back in October & people are still asking the same question, what is happening with these laneways?

I've now formally asked for a full report

Not the best slide…

But a proper playground is on the way for Moorefield Park

• Works starting soon

I’ll share more details once design is confirmed

Riverbank Arts Centre update

• Planning work underway
• Feedback due 25 March
• No full funding yet
• Next step is securing delivery funding

This project matters for the town centre and I’ll be pushing to keep it moving.

Traffic lights affect how safe it is to cross and how traffic moves through Newbridge.

At places like St Conleth’s Bridge, the timings don’t always work.

That’s why I’m bringing a motion next week to review signal timings using real data.

Flooding in Newbridge wasn’t luck. It was council staff on the ground and emergency measures doing the job.

But Newbridge is still stuck in Tranche 2 for a full Flood Relief Scheme.

That’s why this is my first question next week.

#CllrChrisPender #NewbridgeOrNowhere #FloodRisk

Footpaths in parts of Newbridge are so narrow a lighting column can block a buggy or wheelchair.
That’s not acceptable.

Next week I’m bringing a motion to pilot wall mounted or solar lighting so footpaths work for everyone.

I'm pushing for funding for Newbridge's second River Liffey bridge. The council has done its part – now we need national backing! To hear the full interview visit bit.ly/4bKsut1 #NewbridgeOrNowhere #CllrChrisPender #LocalGovernment #Infrastructure #RoadFunding
