To whom it may concern Re: Dublin Port Tunnel

Dear Sir / Madam, Following the publication of the E.I.S. for the proposed A6 route for Dublin Port Tunnel, a Consultative Group was set up by the Corporation comprising Dublin Corporation officials, elected representatives and representatives of the community. A list of the community representatives who have been attending is attached for your information. Eleven meetings of this group were held prior to the City Council meeting on 7th October, 1996.

At that meeting, the City Council agreed that a Draft Variation of the Dublin City Development Plan be initiated and recommended that a series of 5 alternative routes, in addition to the A6 route, should form part of the public display.

Because the total of the six routes now under consideration embrace a much wider corridor than that of the A6 route alone, residents and groups not included in the Consultative Group to date may be affected by one or other of the options. The next meeting of this group will be held in Room 409, Floor 4, Block 2, Civic Offices, Dublin 8, at 6.00 p.m. on Thursday 7th November, 1996, and your association is invited to send one representative. The agenda for that meeting is attached.

I also enclose an information handout which provides an A4 size map and some information on each of the six routes.

Access to the Civic Offices car park has been arranged. If you wish to avail of this car park, please let me know the registration no. and make of car before 12 noon on Thursday. The entrance to this car park is on Winetavern Street and it will be open until 6.30 pm. Exit from the car park will only be possible when the meeting is finished.

Yours faithfully, Roy Champ
Acting Administrative Officer
