As a resident in this county who votes in this constituency, I wish to make a
submission on the above county development plan.
I object to the inclusion of ‘The Gallops Avenue’ in this plan (Chapter 5 and Table 5.4
- Priority Road and Bridge Projects). This road proposal will not address the
transport and movement needs of the county and our county deserves better.
Furthermore, it does not have the support of the majority of Naas residents as
evidenced by the many thousand submissions over the years to the various Local
Area Plans, Transport Strategy etc. This road proposal was democratically defeated
in 2019 by Naas councillors (6:1 votes) who are on the record in Naas MD Council
minutes as stating this road proposal is outdated and not fit for purpose. It is entirely
unacceptable to disregard this democratic decision and continue to attempt to
include it county development plans, The proposed Gallops Ave road must be
deleted from the county development plan.
