Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Active Travel Scheme
Scoil Mhuire National School, Butlerstown, County Waterford
Waterford City and County Council proposes to undertake the construction of traffic calming and pedestrian measures outside Butlerstown National School on the L4047 and L4049 at Butlerstown, Co. Waterford.
The proposed scheme consists of traffic calming, pedestrian crossing upgrade, footpath widening, buildouts, parking realignment, and placemaking (including tree pits, benches, and colourful school gateway elements on approaches to the school). The scheme also proposes improved pedestrian access to the old school car park on the L4047.
The objective of the Safe Routes to School programme is to prioritise safe access to the school, improve school visibility through signposting and placemaking, and reduce vehicle congestion at the front of school, as set out on the attached drawing.
The drawing is available for inspection on Waterford City and County Council’s website consult.waterfordcouncil.ie and is also on display in our Customer Services Departments in Bailey’s New Street in Waterford City and Davitt’s Quay, Dungarvan from Wednesday 19th March 2025 to Wednesday 2nd April 2025.
The Council will consider any submissions or observations made in writing regarding the proposal.
