New downtown planters-seats coming soon

Five new planters with seats for the new footpath areas in downtown Kilcullen will be delivered at the end of July, the recent meeting of Kilcullen Community Action heard, writes Brian Byrne. Their positioning will be decided by the Kildare-Newbridge MD Area Engineer.

Each planter is large enough to hold a tree, and will have seats on both sides, meeting chair Noel Clare said, adding that it was 'great' that they will arrive shortly.

Their placement will involve managing sightlines and also their position in relation to the bus stop and the upcoming pedestrian crossing.

There was some further discussion on the need to meet with businesses in the area on the kind and placement of their own, more casual street furniture.
