What’s proposed
A Masterplan for the future development of Jobstown Park, Tallaght, Dublin 24. This Masterplan includes the development of a neighbourhood recreational hub providing a wide range of both active and passive recreational facilities in Jobstown Park. It is planned that these facilities can be provided on a phased basis, over the coming years. Emphasis has been given to the development of the widest possible range of outdoor sports and recreational facilities including a 4 no. All-Weather 5-a-side pitches, 400m Athletics Track, Skatepark, Childrens’ Playground, Adult Tone Zone, etc. to complement the indoor facilities, currently available in Tallaght Leisure Centre and those already in the Park. The future environmental and financial sustainability of the park proposals, together with the need to meet the specific future recreational needs of the population of Jobstown and the wider Tallaght area, have been the main guiding principles in the overall Park Design. The proposal also includes the future provision of wind turbines on the site, which can be developed in the future if deemed economically viable. Future pedestrian and cycle linkages from this central recreational hub by way of a green bridge across the Outer Ring Road extending to the Luas - Saggart and Tallaght Lines, Tallaght Town Centre/ Zip Project etc. are also provided for. All on a site of approximately 27 acres / 11.5 hectares as indicated on site location drawing no. PLS 1763 – 01d The first phase of the park development will involve the construction this year of 4 no. floodlit five-a-side (Astro-type) all-weather pitches.
