Space and capacity for 67,000 dwellings on 83 sites.

Áit agus acmhainn le haghaidh 67,000 áras cónaithe ar 83 suíomh.

Almost 70,000 residential homes could be built on land owned by the State, says a new report to be submitted to the Government today.

D'fhéadfaí beagnach 70,000 áras cónaithe a thógáil ar thalamh ar leis an Stát é, a deirtear i dtuarascáil nua atá le cur faoi bhráid an Rialtais inniu.

The report compiled by the Land Development Agency claims that there are 83 sites in cities and towns where up to 67,000 homes could be built in the future.

Maítear sa tuarascáil atá curtha i dtoll a chéile ag an nGníomhaireacht Forbartha Talún go bhfuil 83 suíomh i gcathracha agus i mbailte móra a bhféadfaí suas le 67,000 áras cónaithe a thógáil orthu i gceann na haimsire.

Most of the sites are on land that has already been developed.

Ar thalamh a forbraíodh cheana atá cuid mhór de na suímh.

While the infrastructure of these places is outdated by now, they are all located in urban areas with plenty of public and private facilities.

Siúd is go bhfuil bonneagar na n-áiteanna sin seanchaite faoi seo, tá siad ar fad suite i gceantair uirbeacha a bhfuil neart saoráidí poiblí agus príobháideacha iontu.

The locations and number of sites are Dublin (38), Cork (14), Galway (8), Limerick (6), Waterford (4) Dundalk (4) Sligo (4), Ath Luin (2), Letterkenny (2) and Drogheda (1).

Is iad na háiteanna agus líon na suíomh atá i dtreis Baile Átha Cliath (38), Corcaigh (14), Gaillimh (8), Luimneach (6), Port Láirge (4) Dún Dealgan (4) Sligeach (4), Baile Átha Luain (2), Leitir Ceanainn (2) agus Droichead Átha (1).

However, there are great differences between the locations, and the various complexities mean that the construction work could not be undertaken everywhere at the same time, it is said.

Tá éagsúlachtaí móra idir na suímh, áfach, agus fágann na castachtaí éagsúla nach bhféadfaí tabhairt faoin obair thógála i ngach áit ag an am céanna, a deirtear.

However, according to the Land Development Agency, 9,760 residential houses could be built from here in the next five to ten years.

Mar sin féin, dar leis an nGníomhaireacht Forbartha Talún go bhféadfaí 9,760 áras cónaithe a thógáil as seo go ceann cúig nó deich mbliana.

17,440 could be built in the following years, and the remaining 39,710 could be built in the long run.

D'fhéadfaí 17,440 a thógáil sna blianta ina dhiaidh sin, agus ba i bhfad na haimsire a d'fhéadfaí an 39,710 eile a thógáil.

As with Dublin, the report highlights in particular land owned by Horse Racing Ireland in Ballyna Lobar; location near the bus station in Castleknock; and another next to the Mint in Sandyford.

Mar le Baile Átha Cliath de, soilsítear sa tuarascáil go háirithe talamh ar le Rásaíocht Capall Éireann é i mBaile na Lobhar; suíomh in aice leis an stáisiún bus i gCaisleán Cnucha; agus ceann eile taobh leis an Mionta in Áth an Ghainimh.

A site with Irish Gas Networks on Dock Road in Limerick is also illuminated; a site with the Electricity Supply Board on Sarsellaigh Road in Cork; and land in the port of Galway.

Soilsítear chomh maith suíomh le Líonraí Gáis Éireann ar Bhóthar an Duga i Luimneach; suíomh le Bord Soláthair an Lecitreachais ar Bhóthar an tSáirséalaigh i gCorcaigh; agus talamh i gcalafort na Gaillimhe.
