3.9 Ha site at lands at Wayside, Enniskerry Road, Kiltiernan, Dublin 18
Permission for development at a 3.9 Ha. site. The site is generally bounded by the Sancta Maria property to the north; greenfield land to the north-east with a recently constructed residential development named "Rockville" further to the north-east; the Enniskerry Road to the south-west; greenfield lands to the south with dwellings further south; and lands that will facilitate the future Glenamuck Link Distributor Road to the east. At the GLDR access point, this will include works, inclusive of any necessary tie-ins, to the footpath and cycle track to create a side road access junction incorporating the provision of short section of shared path and an uncontrolled shared pedestrian and cyclist crossing across the side road junction on a raised table. The works will also include the provision of a toucan crossing, inclusive of the necessary traffic signal equipment, immediately south of the access point to facilitate pedestrian and cyclist movement across the mainline road. All works at the GLDR access point will include the provision of the necessary tactile paving layouts and are provided on an area measuring c. 0.06 Ha. At the Enniskerry Road, works are proposed to facilitate 2 No. new accesses for the development along with modifications to Enniskerry Road. The 2 No. side road priority access junctions incorporate the provision of an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing across the side road junction on a raised table. The modifications to Enniskerry Road fronting the development (circa 340 metres) includes the narrowing of the carriageway down to 6.5 metres (i.e. a 3.25 metres running lane in each direction) from the front of the kerb on western side of Enniskerry Road. The remaining former carriageway, which varies in width of c. 2 metres, will be reallocated for other road users and will include the introduction of a widened pedestrian footpath and landscaped buffer on the eastern side of the road adjoining the proposed development. The above works are inclusive of all necessary tie-in works such as new kerb along eastern side of Enniskerry Road, drainage details, road marking, signage and public lighting. Potable water is to be provided from the existing piped infrastructure along the Enniskerry Road. The interface works on Enniskerry Road measures c. 0.28 Ha. Additionally, the development includes the removal of the existing stone wall and the construction of a new stone wall set back on the applicant’s lands to facilitate the upgrade and realignment of the Enniskerry Road. Surface water and foul drainage infrastructure is proposed to connect into and through the existing/permitted Rockville developments (DLR Reg. Refs. D17A/0793, D18A/0566 and D20A/0015) on a total area measuring c. 0.5 Ha. The development site area and drainage and roads works areas will provide a total application site area of c. 4.7 Ha. The development will principally consist of: the provision of a mixed use development consisting of 91 No. residential units (72 No. houses and 19 No. duplex units), a creche (405 sq m) and retail/commercial floorspace (356 sq m), which ranges in height from 2 to 4 No. storeys. The 91 No. residential units will consist of 5 No. 1 bedroom units (5 No. duplexes), 18 No. 2 bedroom units (9 No. duplexes and 9 No. houses), 48 No. 3 bedroom units (43 No. houses and 5 No. duplexes) and 20 No. 4 bedroom units (20 No. houses). The development also provides: pedestrian links from Enniskerry Road and a pedestrian route from Enniskerry Road to the future Glenamuck Link Distributor Road; 178 No. car parking spaces including 2 No. mobility impaired spaces, 10 No. electric vehicle spaces, 1 No. drop-off space/loading bay and 1 No. parent and child space; motorcycle parking; bicycle parking; bin storage; private balconies, terraces and gardens; hard and soft landscaping; sedum roofs; solar panels; boundary treatments; lighting; substation; plant; and all other associated site works above and below ground.
