To carry out the following development: 1) The construction of a new 4m wide cycling infrastructure approximately 1185 metres in length, travelling from north to south on the R458, commencing with an uncontrolled crossing point north of the river Rine, then veering off-road over a refurbished masonry arch bridge, under the M18 Bridge and over the OPW embankment. The cycle path will then travel south via the existing access road serving the motorway attenuation ponds to where it will cross the L3148 east of the Dromoland East Roundabout via an uncontrolled crossing. It then veers south off-road, tying back in with the existing cycling infrastructure on the R458 with an uncontrolled crossing located approximately 300m south of the Dromoland East Roundabout. 2) An extension of the existing 60Kph speed limit for consideration of the scheme. 3) Installation of public lighting 4) The installation of associated signage. 5) All ancillary site works. In accordance with the Habitats Directive, Appropriate Assessment Screening has been carried out on the project. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) screening determination has been made and concludes that there is no real likelihood of significant effects on the environment arising from the proposed development. The masonry bridge is a Protected Structure RPS No.:211 NIAH 20404204 as noted in the Clare County Development Plan 2017-2023 (as varied) Volume 4
