How do I get traffic calming measures in my estate?

As limited financial resources are available for the implementation of traffic calming measures, the Traffic Section engaged a Consulting Engineer to prioritise all requests for traffic calming in December 2007 as a means to allocate funds appropriately to the areas most in need.

For more information take a look at the “Prioritisation of Traffic Calming Schemes in the Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council Area” Report ( 2008).

However, due to subsequent funding restraints Traffic Section will be prioritising the implementation of the 16 schemes identified for Accident Investigation and Prevention (AIP), as identified in the report, once funding is available ahead of the Listing of Prioritised Traffic Calming Schemes. These areas warrant the attention of AIP assessment due to high accident rates on the street(s), junctions and/or areas that surround the evaluated locations.

In the meantime any request for traffic calming will be put on a list for consideration in the drawing up of future traffic calming programmes. Where an estate is not in charge of the Council, the Council is not empowered to provide traffic calming measures in the form of speed reducing ramps, etc. Concerns in relation to speeding, careless or dangerous driving in an area should be brought to the attention of the local Garda Station.

How do I know I own a Protected Structure?

If you are unsure if a building you own is protected or not, you can simply check the County Development Plan, which can be viewed in County Hall, Libraries, and on the Councils website. Sometimes, ambiguities in the address and name of the buildings can make it unclear whether a structure is included on the RPS. Where there is uncertainty you should contact the Conservation Officer. 

How do I know I own a Protected Structure?

If you are unsure if a building is a Protected Structure, you can simply check Appendix 4 of County Development Plan 2022-2028. You can also determine whether a building is protected by browsing the County Development Plan interactive webmap – where a building is coloured orange this will identify it as a Protected Structure. Sometimes, ambiguities in the address and name of the buildings can make it unclear whether a structure is included on the RPS. Where there is uncertainty you should contact the Conservation Officer. 

How do I know it is safe to swim and when is it not?

There are different ways you can use to find out what is the latest quality status of bathing waters and if there are any current warnings or advice against bathing:

  • This page on our website regularly publishes results of bathing water sampling carried out at all 9 locations including the 5 identified bathing areas, inside and outside the bathing season.  
  • Before going to the bathing water you can check the EPA national bathing water website here to see the latest water quality (excellent, good, sufficient or poor) and find out if there are any current warnings or advice against bathing notices in relation to water quality. Only applicable during the bathing season.
  • At the bathing area - lifeguards will fly the red flags when bathing waters are considered unsafe for bathing. You can check out the notice boards to see the latest water quality and if any warnings or advice against bathing notices have been posted by the local authorities.
  • Swimming after heavy rainfall carries an added risk of pollution from surface runoff and is best avoided for 48 hours. Further information can be found here.
  • You can follow the EPA Beaches Twitter account and for news and information on bathing waters and tweets of when bathing water incidents start and end.
