Padel-Tennis Courts; 2 no. Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA); and 1 no. Outdoor Gym. An Ecological Park in the southern part of the site which adjoins but does not form part of Balmer’s Bog is also proposed.

Car parking, cycle parking and a bus set down area are also provided within the site. Access to the proposed development is provided via the existing access off Hill Street/Dublin Road (R132) (Immediately south of Byrne’s pub). It is proposed to adjust the existing R132 road carriageway lane width to 3.1m along a c. 70 m section of Hill Street to the north of the proposed access and extend the existing cycle lane along the western edge of the R132 Dublin Road /Hill Street as far as the site entrance. The proposed development also provides for alterations to grounds levels within the site, a pumping station, site lighting (including flood lighting surrounding the pitch), landscaping and boundary treatments and all ancillary site development works.
