Nicola Byrne has issued her second court objection to plans for New Street in north Dublin village
Fingal County Council’s plan for public realm enhancements to New Street, Malahide was passed by councillors in January. Photograph: Evan TreacyFingal County Council’s plan for public realm enhancements to New Street, including upgraded surfaces with outdoor dining areas, street furniture and cycle stands, was passed by councillors by 22 votes to nine with five abstentions last January 16th after a lengthy debate about the merits of pedestrianisation.
The court refused to grant her a temporary pretrial injunction in August 2021 that would have prevented pedestrianisation and traffic diversions pending determination of her wider case. That 2021 action, which remains before the court, alleges pedestrianisation has created traffic issues in the area and more antisocial behaviour.
Ms Byrne, represented by barrister Alan Doyle, instructed by MK Solicitors, claims the council’s chief executive legally erred by allegedly failing to consider issues relating to proper planning and sustainable development of the area. He should have examined the effects of the proposed development when taken together with previous public realm developments, she argues.
