On Thursday 28th November 2024, the Mayor of South Dublin County Council, Cllr. Baby Pereppadan officially turned the sod to mark the commencement of the second phase of works at Kiltipper Park. The Mayor was joined by local Councillors, Ms. Teresa Walsh, Director of Services, and staff of South Dublin County Council.

The works about to commence will include the construction of an extended car park; footpath and northern pedestrian entrance improvements; sports pitch construction & associated drainage; construction of a new viewpoint area; hedgerow rejuvenation works; and all associated ancillary site drainage and landscaping works.

This phase of the project is funded by South Dublin County Council’s 3-year capital budget and supported by The Department of Rural and Community Development through the Outdoor Recreational Infrastructure Scheme (ORIS) and the Department of Sport via Sports Capital Grants.
