Update on work at Lucan Village Green

Cllr Shane Moynihan (FF) asked for an update on planned works at Lucan Village Green, Demesne and Weir Works at the recent area committee meeting.

In response, South Dublin County Council say the design team encountered “significant delays” in procuring a contractor to carry out site investigations.

However, the contractor recently completed the investigation works and will provide a report to allow the council to make “final adjustments to the detailed design and tender documentation.”

“We then plan to commence the tender process in August. I anticipate this will allow a contractor to commence by October and for the works to be completed before the end of 2024,” said a council spokesperson.

“It is proposed to incorporate the construction of the new public realm car-park, opposite the Lucan Demesne, into the construction contract as it will be necessary to complete this new park in advance of works commencing at the Lucan Demesne, to create the new plaza.”
