KILDARE: Businesses hit by road work projects need support
A call has been made for businesses impacted by road projects to be supported.
Naas councillor Bob Quinn cited the Kilcullen Road in Naas as an example.
The road is being narrowed as cycle lanes and footpaths are provided and the work is likely to continue until the end of next March.
He told a Naas Municipal District meeting that Kildare County Council should engage with the National Transport Authority “to outline any business supports that could be made available to enhance the customer experience.”
KCC engineer Donal Hodgins said KCC meets with the NTA every three months and “can discuss the issue with them.”
He said the next meeting will take place before the end of next March.
He also said that there had been “a lot of positive feedback from businesses.”
However, Cllr Bill Clear urged that some attention be given to the Refillz business at Kilcullen Road suggesting that it had been badly impacted by the works.
