Birdhill Active Travel Scheme
The proposed works consist of the construction of a segregated pedestrian and cycle surface, on both sides of the R445, a reduction of road widths to a minimum of 6.0m, along the R445, in the townland of Birdhill, Co. Tipperary. The scheme extents are from a tie-in point with the emerging Killaloe Bypass/Shannon Crossing/R494 Improvement Scheme development just north of the existing Birdhill roundabout in the east, to the 50kph/60kph demarcation on the R445 to the west of Birdhill Village. • Section 1: A 3.0m wide shared pedestrian/cycle path along the western side of the existing R494 corridor and the northern arm of the existing R494/R445 Birdhill Roundabout Junction. This section of the proposed route ties into and very much mirrors the geometric arrangements of the emerging Killaloe Bypass/Shannon Crossing/R494 Improvement scheme. • Section 2: A 3.0m wide shared pedestrian/cycle path over a 50m length within the verge area to the northwest of the existing roundabout. The route utilises a 1:20 ramp from the existing embankment top, to the existing ESB road level adjacent the ESB sub-station. The western arm of the Birdhill Roundabout will be redesigned to accommodate a new informal two-stage pedestrian/cycle crossing facility via an enlarged/realigned refuge/splitter island in accordance with best practice guidance. • Section 3: This section connects the Birdhill roundabout with Birdhill Village over a distance of approximately 495m and includes a number of private vehicle entrance/exit points in addition to the existing 50kph/60kph demarcation. It incorporates a raised one-way cycle track along both sides of the carriageway. The existing footpath along the south-eastern side of the corridor is to be retained whilst a new 2.0m wide footpath is proposed along the entire north-western side of the corridor. • Section 4: Approximately 110m in length, Section 4 is aligned along the central part of the scheme within Birdhill Village. Over this section, the R445 corridor exhibits a narrow cross section at the location of existing business premises and as such a shared pedestrian/cycle path varying in width from 2.4m (at a localised pinch point) to 3.0m is proposed. A short section of 1.75m raised cycle track and footpath varying width (minimum 2.0m) approaching the R445/R466/R504 staggered cross roads on both sides is also proposed. • Section 5: Approximately 320m in length extending from the R445/R466/R504 staggered crossroads, south-westwards as far as the existing 50kph/60kph demarcation. The existing footpath along the north-western side of the corridor is to be retained as much as possible whilst a new 2.0m wide footpath is proposed along the majority of the south-eastern side of the corridor providing a safe connected pedestrian route to/from both the southbound bus stop and the pedestrian entrance to Birdhill Park and Playground. Section 5 includes the installation of a new signal-controlled toucan crossing facility across the R445 and the installation of a new bus shelter on the south side of the carriageway.
