Hello,

The "renamed" Gallops Avenue in this new proposed plan has already been rejected by the current Kildare council members, once rejected this plan cannot be proposed again.

The plan doesn't work as any further increase in traffic at the Naas Racecourse junction simply creates a traffic bottleneck on the Dublin Rd. I have a link of videos showing evidence of this.

 

As Ballymore is breaking ground for a new development https://www.independent.ie/business/irish/sean-mulryans-ballymore-plans-385-new-homes-for-naas-40528772.html, I can understand the council is "under pressure" to vote and approve this new plan. The "pressure" this developer is putting to the council members is not a reason to approve a proposal which has been already rejected and also does not work. The only viable solution to remove traffic from Naas town is for a ring road on the Naas ball/ Johnstown side. This will allow Sean Mulryan's development to be build without completely congesting Naas.

I would love a response to my objection.

Regards,

Transport
