Information and Research

The plans and other documents listed below are associated with former development plans or have been superseded.

The plans and other documents listed below are associated with former development plans or have been superseded. In many cases they may have been superseded by a statutory plan such as a SDZ planning Schemes (e.g. Poolbeg West) or a local area plan (e.g. North Fringe)

For this reason they are chiefly of historical interest only. In the absence of any superseding plan they may have some relevance; this would however be measured against the policies and objectives of current the City Development Plan and other national guidelines (such as the Design Manual for Roads and Streets, 2013).

Where available in digital format, these plans can be downloaded below.
