We asked

Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council is developing the Deansgrange Cycle Route Scheme which proposes a cycle track on both sides of Kill Lane which proceeds from the entrance to Clonkeen Park to the Deansgrange Road/Kill Lane signalised junction. Pedestrian and cycle crossings are provided on two arms of the junction which will allow cyclists to travel between Kill Lane and Deansgrange Road.

On Deansgrange Road, it is proposed to provide a two-way cycle track on the western side of the road. The cycling facility then progresses within the Deansgrange Cemetery via a new entrance where cyclists will use the existing paths with the public lighting proposed. At the northern side of the cemetery, the two-way cycle track will return to Deansgrange Road via a modified entrance and continue on the western side of Deansgrange Road to the Deansgrange Road / Brookville Park signalised junction. Here it will tie in with proposals outlined here as part of the Dundrum to Dun Laoghaire Active Travel Scheme (the DLR Connector).
