Temp Road Closure of sections of South Shore Road, Rush

My colleague Cllr Brian Dennehy and I have received a notice  from Fingal County Council in relation to an application the council has received from Jons Civil Engineering Company Ltd for permission to temporarily close roads in the Rush area for the purpose of carrying out upgrade works to the existing foul sewer network on behalf of Irish Water as part of the Rush Waste Water Collection Project. 

It is proposed that these roads will be closed on a phased basis from 10.00am Tuesday 2nd May 2017 until 6.00pm Thursday 31st August 2017.

The roads in question are:

Phase 1:
South Shore Road will be closed from its junction with Sandy Lane to its junction with the Golf Road through to the Corr’s Lane/Channel Road junction. The works are sequential and
both roads will not be closed at the one time. When works are underway on the South Shore Road the Golf Road will remain open and when works are underway on the Golf Road the South Shore Road will be open to traffic. The Golf Road/South Shore Road junction will remain open to allow for access to the Golf Club and local businesses.

This phase will be closed from 10.00am Tuesday 2nd May 2017 until 6.00pm Friday 2nd June 2017.

Phase 2:
South Shore Road will be closed from the green area west of the South Shore Carpark to its junction with Sandy Lane. This phase will be closed from 6.00pm Friday 2nd June until 6.00pm Thursday 31st August 2017.

Alternative routes available for vehicular traffic are as follows:

Phase 1:
Vehicles wishing to access to the west of the road closure at the Golf Road/South Shore Road junction can divert via Channel Road onto the South Shore Road at the Spout Road junction continuing on the South Shore Road to its junction with Linkside then heading eastwards on the South Shore Road towards the
Golf Road.

Vehicles wishing to access the South Shore Road to the east of Sandy Lane can divert at the Lower Main Street/Hands Lane
junction.

Phase 2:
Access to South Shore Road between the Sandy Lane/South Shore junction, Hands Lane/South Shore junction and the South Shore Carpark will be for local access only. There will be Road Closed Ahead/Local Access Only signs at the Hands Lane/Upper Main Street junction, the Sandy Road/Upper Main Street junction and the Golf Road/South Shore Road junction. Diversions are via Corr’s Lane/Golf Road. 

Local access for residents and businesses will be maintained at all times.

Any person may lodge an objection in writing with the Senior Executive Officer, Operations Unit, Fingal County Council, Grove Road, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15 to arrive no later than 4.00pm on Friday 7th April 2017.
