We thank the large number of Supporters and Public Representatives that attended the meeting in the Tara Towers Hotel on 15^th November. There was a presentation of the proposals for the Sandymount/Merrion/Blackrock Study s2s-presentation-nov-2016  and a lively discussion of the issues. In the end, there was consensus around the following resolution:

1:  Accept the proposals as a significant step forward.   

2:  Express the hope that the required environmental assessments would demonstrate that the need to protect birds/ habitats can be reconciled with the provision of (a) sustainable transport systems and  (b) access to amenity for the community.

3:  Work towards the provision of a fully coastal cycle / pedestrian route as the preferred option.

It is expected that the NTA will hold public meetings on the proposals on the 22^nd and 23^rd of November in the Tara Towers Hotel.  Supporters of the S2S Project are urged to attend those meetings and contribute in support of the project.

Note:   16^th December 2016: Final Date for the submission of comments to the NTA
