Local Clondalkin Councillor said “I carried out a survey on my social media and out of 496 people that responded a staggering 98% said they do not accept that South Dublin County Council (SDCC) have said they cannot return the Woodford Roundabout back to its previous layout due to health and safety with less than 2% agreeing with SDCC. The survey question was – Do you accept that SDCC have said they cannot return the Woodford Roundabout back to its previous layout due to Health and Safety?”
Cllr Timmons continued “I am not happy with the roundabout the way it is and have to say I don’t accept that it cannot be returned to the way it was. It is now an accident waiting to happen in my opinion. I have been an opponent of the works on the roundabout since I learned how drastic they are, I have not spoken to many people that feel this is of benefit to the people of Woodford and the wider area. Nearly everyone feels traffic will be worse and that it is dangerous.”
