Chapter 4 - Surveys and Additional Reports

Headings of attached 10 page document:

Long story short / Point of consensus - A way forward that should suit all stakeholders in this area is to make Henry Street one way from Clareview Terrace to Mallow st and continue to Arthur's Quay. Retain existing parking for residents and businesses by using a herringbone formation, providing safety from traffic for pedestrians and also preventing long vehicles parking on this street. This single lane, rather than double, will give sufficient space for bike lanes, landscaping, resident and business parking and one way traffic downhill. A herringbone parking structure will allow cars easily pull into and out of their parking space safely.
