that this Council communicate to Tesco the importance of the traffic flow in the park Road and Deerpark road. The petrol pumps are too close to the main enterance of the tesco shopping complex. The design layout of the site is inadequate to take traffic using the petrol pumps and the traffic entering to shop. This often causes a backlog of traffic with tailbacks on to Deerpark Road. This tailback was observed all the ways back to to the Park Road roundabout causing further traffic conjestion on Park Road itself. It is important that we urge Tesco to ratify this situation as soon as possible.
Reply:
Tesco were granted planning permission for petrol pumps and associated works. A condition of this application requires that the boundary wall adjoining Deerpark road be set back by 5 metres. This boundary wall was set back in December 2007, and therefore Tesco have complied with their planning requirments. Killarney town Council can request Tesco to provide an alternative queuing arrangement within their site. However, we connot insist that they do this.
