Have Your Say on Phase 2 of the St. Columbanus Road Scheme

Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council is inviting residents to share their views on the updated proposals for Phase 2 of the St. Columbanus Road Public Realm Scheme.

Following feedback from an earlier round of public consultation, the Council has revised and expanded the proposed scheme. A Public Realm Scheme is a project to improve public spaces such as streets, footpaths, parking areas and green spaces, making them safer, more attractive and easier for everyone to use.

The project aims to make St. Columbanus Road safer, greener and more welcoming for residents, visitors and road users, while also improving the parking layout and helping to prevent unsafe and illegal parking.

The proposed improvements include:

• New landscaped green areas
• Additional tree planting
• New bollards in key locations to prevent illegal and unsafe parking
• Clearly marked free parking spaces
• A raised table at the junction with Dundrum Road to improve accessibility and help reduce vehicle speeds
• A new zebra crossing to make it safer and easier for people to cross the road

The revised scheme extends along St. Columbanus Road from its junction with Dundrum Road for approximately 210 metres to the existing "No Entry" point near Our Lady's National School.

When completed, the scheme will provide a safer, greener and more attractive environment for residents, visitors and road users.

The consultation period opens 24 August 2026 and closes 7 September 2026 at 4 pm
