   Offaly County Development Plan 2021-2027 Appendix 2 Settlement Capacity Audit Offaly County Development Plan 2021-2027 Page 475 as per Chapter 8 of Volume 1 of this Plan titled Sustainable Transport Strategy. The Roads Section has estimated costs of approximately €82,000,000 for projects identified in the Volume 2 Settlement Plans, which does not include annual programme of works but rather projects. Roads related infrastructure listed in the Volume 2 Settlement Plans has estimated costs of approximately €82,000,000, which is included within the figure of €204,000,000 above. The cost per settlement would include larger projects and smaller footpaths and cycleway measures that will be addressed through the Town and Village Renewal Scheme. It should be noted that the infrastructure works included in this Plan are not exhaustive and there may be additional works required when a more detailed analysis of an area and land / site is carried out as part of a planning application. The level of works required will also be dependent on the nature and scale of the development on the subject lands / site. This will be assessed and reviewed in greater detail at the planning application stage of any development proposals on the subject lands / sites.

   Offaly County Development Plan 2021-2027 Appendix 2 Settlement Capacity Audit Offaly County Development Plan 2021-2027 Page 476 Table A2.7 Traffic Light Matrix for use in SCA Tables Site Evaluation Criteria Green (Infrastructure/Services are Readily Available) Amber (Infrastructure/Services are not currently available, but investment is likely to be delivered within the plan period) Red (Provision of Infrastructure/Services unlikely to be realised during the plan period) Roads The site has direct access to or can connect to an existing road network. (This includes any road access that will be provided by a development which is currently under construction adjacent to the site). Road access is likely to be delivered within the plan period. Further investment may be required, including potential access through third-party lands (existing/under construction/planned housing estate but not commenced). Road access is unlikely to be developed during the plan period. E.g. the site is landlocked by land that is unlikely to provide access (different landowner with no plans for development). Active Travel (Footpaths and/or Cycle Lanes) The site has direct access to pedestrian (and where possible cycle) infrastructure on or adjoining the site. Active travel infrastructure is likely to be provided within the plan period. Further investment will be required to connect the site to the existing network. Active travel infrastructure is unlikely to be developed during the plan period. Public Lighting The site has public lighting either on, adjoining the site, or on the opposite side of the road. Public lighting is likely to be delivered within the plan period. Further investment will be required to connect the site to existing public lighting infrastructure. The site has no public lighting on or adjoining the site and is unlikely to be developed during the plan period. Water Supply The site has direct access to the water supply network/infrastructure and there is sufficient capacity. Access to the water supply network is likely to be provided within the plan period. Additional investment will be required to develop the necessary water supply infrastructure. The site is unlikely to be serviced or serviceable with water supply during the plan period. Wastewater The site has direct access to the wastewater network/infrastructure and there is sufficient capacity. Access to the wastewater network is likely to be provided within the plan period. Further investment and investigation will be required to develop suitable wastewater infrastructure for the site (by UE or developer-led). The site is unlikely to be serviced or serviceable with wastewater during the plan period. Social Infrastructure The site is within 800m of a community facility. The site is within 801m and 1200m of a community facility. The site is over 1200m from a community facility. Compact Growth The site is within 1200m of the town centre. The site is outside 1200m of the town centre. Not Applicable.
