Bray Transport Interchange Scheme
Pursuant to the requirements of the above, Wicklow County Council proposes to regenerate the existing Forecourt at Bray DART Station to create a transport interchange that strikes a balance between fulfilling the key functions of a transport interchange and providing a landmark civic space with a clear identity contributing to the local place function. The proposed development, which is the subject of this Part 8, will include the following:
The extent of the Bray Transport Interchange consists of the general forecourt area in front of Bray Station and incorporates sections of Quinsborough Road, Adelaide Road and Florence Road.
The proposed scheme intends to facilitate Interchange between the key modes of walking, cycling, taxi, bus and railway. Whilst providing a high-quality public realm that complements the heritage of the station building. In general, this will consist of works to the footpaths including construction and realignments of kerb and channel lines, and provision of high-quality paving setts and landscaping features.
In accordance with S. I. 476, 2011, Section 250, Planning and Development (Amendment) (No.3) Regulations 2011, the first stage of the Appropriate Assessment process, screening, has been completed in compliance with the relevant European Commission and national guidelines.
