I don't think this new road is going to help traffic in the area, what do you think?

In the Development Plan, it is proposed to extend this all the way to the Wyckham Way in Dundrum.

They need to improve access at the Luas stop, it looks a little tight. Note the Drummartin Link Road may eventually become the Eastern Bypass.

Place grass verge between traffic lanes and cycles lanes, but keep these lanes at the same height, with a kerb up to the footpath.

A lot of the drawings are illegible, as they have been exported to *.jpg or *.gif before being added to *.pdf. Tehy should be exported direct from CAD to PDF as vectored drawings.

Can't really see how it will help traffic in Sandyford. The link to Dundrum was
already blocked due to opposition so there seems little benefit in it. By building the road there will also be 2 less playing fields.
