Study Methodology
The
Engineering features considered as part of the Constraints
Study consist of the physical features (topography, river
systems and valleys, etc.) and the main infrastructural features
(roads, railways, main electricity lines and main gas lines)
within the study area. Identification of such constraints
was completed primarily as part of a desktop review of the
information contained on the Ordnance Survey Discovery Series
(1:50,000) mapping, complimented by site visits in the form
of windscreen surveys. In addition to this, information was
gathered from service providers (Electricity Supply Board
and Bord Gais Eireann) in order to supplement the review.
