Re: Portrane Road Lorry Watch (for new Hospital works)

I saw a HGV tipper truck this morning at 0825 driving through the village in the direction of Portrane, the driver was on a mobile phone, and turning the truck around the ninety degree bend at the intersection with the New Road! Bottom line we need to insist that FCC consult with the Department of T...

Re: Portrane Road Lorry Watch (for new Hospital works)

Hi 1sttimer This complaints form is not going to work in this situation. In order to complete this form, one would have to stop the truck drivers and ask them for their credentials! We are not members of An Gardaí! We need a direct line of contact to report such incidences. The conditions to the Tra...

Re: Donbate/Portrane Local Area Plan

Hi TheBlowIn , I did not see any advertisement of DLAP. I did ask a Fingal engineer the question of DLAP advertisement, and the response was, "Fingal did one DLAP leaflet drop back in 2011!" Our local councillors, DPCC and our elected politicians are not informing or protecting the interes...

Re: Hall Doors/Front Porch

B&Q Liffey Valley have suitable double glazed pvc doors at a reasonable price. Insulated reinforced concrete plinth with damp proof barrier is all you need. Just find yourself a local tradesman such as a carpenter and your sorted. The doors are of good quality and ideal for such a job.

Re: Donbate/Portrane Local Area Plan

Hi Ken, It's a proposal. I don't think they have applied for planning yet! I could be wrong. On another note: At the DLAP meeting, I was told that infrastructure will be put in place as the demands increase. This includes pumping stations, schools, roads, etc. The DLAP plan is a vision of the future...

Re: Glaslinn House planning - Portrane Road

Congratulations to all involved. I count 26 submissions, all of which are objections. It's also great to see local residents associations getting involved. Maybe consider submitting observations (from both individuals and residents associations) to Donabate Local Area Plan (DLAP).
