A second newsletter has been issued by Manning's (the company undertaking the construction work at 18-20 Rathfarnham Road) and Lidl. Roadworks involving the widening of Beechlawn Way at the junction of Rathfarnham Road are not as advanced as had been intended due to complications with underground service diversions, but the project team still hope to be ready open in December 2013.Eircom is planning to upgrade the underground cable infrastructure in tandem with the road-widening and, according to Manning's and Lidl's newsletter, have committed to communicating with customers who may be affected by the upgrading works.
Manning's has acknowledged the annoyance that has arisen from unauthorised parking and queuing of delivery vehicles outside the site boundary in recent weeks.
What would you like to see in the public space?
At meetings with residents held earlier this year, representatives from Lidl indicated their willingness to consider views on what features might be installed in the public space at the front of the site. Suggestions to date have included seating and flower-beds, with some discussion of the implications of these.
If you have any views or suggestions, please contact the Terenure Residents' Association (click here).
