Since being elected to South Dublin Council in 1999, I have informed local Residents of the impact that the Outer Ring Road would have on the lives of Lucan Residents as this information was not made available by the political parties or previous councillors in Lucan.

It is crucial that all Lucan Residents are aware that the Council then propose an Environmental Impact Study on that section of the road from Balgaddy, north to Woodies, which would also involve widening this road to a dual carriageway.
