Dear Fellow Residents,
In case you are unaware, Fingal County Council is in the process of taking charge of the estates in Tyrrelstown.
From reliable information at hand, it will take approximately two years to reach completion. At the moment Curragh Hall and Bealing Village are now under their control. The taking in charge will be in the following order; Ballentree Village, Gazelle Village, Bishop Orchard, French Park, Rathmore Village, Cruise Park, Mount Eustace and Bellgree Drive.
Three main roads lead into these areas. My main concern is the safety of the residents. There is over speeding, resulting into many accidents throughout the estate. These areas lack traffic calming facilities, such as, speed limit signs, ramps, and proper road markings, adequate and well lit pedestrian crossings. This is an extremely worrying situation which I am addressing on your behalf.
Over the last number of weeks, myself and other concerned parents have attended meetings with the Chief Supt. John Twomey and the Community Gardaí in Blanchardstown Garda Station to discuss these issues.
These meetings have proved to be very beneficial and I am pleased to announce that, at my request, a delegation of Gardaí will visit the estate shortly to inspect the danger spots. After which measures will be taken to improve the situation. A report on this visit will be presented to Fingal County Council. I will keep you posted on this issue and any others relevant to our estate.
Finally we must ensure that our children are safe at all times. It is therefore imperative to establish a safe and healthy environment for all residents, especially our children, so I need your valued support to achieve this aim.
Please feel free to contact me to discuss any issues that may be causing you concern.
