Information pertaining to the bus connects plans concerning emmet road in Dublin 8 (plan references as number 7 in you information collateral). Specifically, I'm looking for you to clarify the following matters: 1. Where is the proposed location of the alternative parking spaces? How safe will the parking space be for the vulnerable members of the public during the night? 2. How many parking spaces will be provided? 3. Is it envisaged for location to be accessible to the public on the same terms as existing street parking (residents permit and pay per hour)? 4. Will the parking be available on an annual permit basis to residents of any streets other than emmet road? If, so which ones? 5. What is the envisaged benefit (journey time reduction) for the emmet street portion specifically (travelling westbound)? The portion of the road which with carry proposed new bus lane? In relation to the proposed benefits can you please advise on the following: - what was the data measurement approach to obtaining the baseline? - please specify any inclusions or exclusions for your data measurement approach (e.g. moving time, stoppage time etc) - what is the data measurement period? - are there any specific time periods the baseline is based on? (E.g. peak/off peak and how you defined these?) - what measurement is your baseline based on (average/median/mean time) - what are the assumptions built into estimating proposed improvements in the journey times? 6. Has resident consultation taken place yet (emmet road specifically)? If not is there one planned? 7. When is the proposed works commencement for emmet road? 8. Is there a framework that you use that weigh up the value of the proposed benefits to the bus users Vs the negative impact that the plans will have on the residents and the community?'
