Development description
- Quality bus corridor - taylors lane & grange road: the sections of bus lane are proposed as follows: eastbound
- 1.410 m of bus lane on taylor’s lane between the new pedestrian crossing situated between glendoher drive and pearse brothers park and the taylor’s lane/grange road junction. 2.320 m of bus lane on grange road between the “eden lounge” and highfield avenue. Westbound
- 1.435 m of bus lane on taylor’s lane between ballyboden road junction and the new pedestrian crossing adjacent to pearse brothers park; 2.510 m of bus lane on grange road between the grange road/taylor’s lane junction and highfield avenue. The scheme has the potential to provide considerable benefits for public transport users on the route as follows: there are significant time savings for a large number of bus passengers. As the number of general traffic lanes remains unchanged, there is no significant impact on journey times for general traffic. There is no negative impact on cyclists. It will form part of a proposed orbital route between tallaght and sandyford area
