It’s easy for people to label this as ‘hyperbolism’ when it’s not affecting their comings and goings on a regular basis. Campaigning to have the conditions of the Turvey road improved is not a solution to the gate, particularly for Beverton Residents within proximity of the gate - that would merely ...

‘Nobody is denied access to their homes’ technically speaking, we are not, however we are denied the safest route home at night. It should not be taken for granted how important it is to have the safest route home at night, regardless of where you’ve been, or what time of night it is... I am a young...

Here is the webcast of Councillor Duncan Smith’s motion to have the gate opened until 12.30am at the very least. It was supported and seconded by Paul Mulville. It starts at 9 : 40 and ends at 22 : 13 - https://fingalcoco.public-i.tv/core/portal/webcast_interactive/401467 Note the u-turn of Darragh ...

Would like to thank the 301 supporters of this petition! This gate has cost taxpayers €143,000 to date and this figure rises by 11,000 each year. It’s important that we get as many signatures as possible

My main objective here is to promote awareness about the Ballisk Gate so that residents can contribute to this petition.I believe this to be a democratic approach.I'm completely open to having various walkways within the estate because it is my belief that the safety of our residents is uppermost.

Hi Dearg11 , I appreciate your reply and concerns. However in my opinion and experience as a Beverton resident , the incidents of anti-social behaviour around the gate have been minimal.
