This was confirmed at the recent Celbridge-Leixlip MD meeting
Kildare County Council says it is hoped that works on the car park and new playground at the Leixlip Amenities Centre will begin early next year.
The news comes after Fianna Fail Cllr. Bernard Caldwell asked for an update on same.
He was told the design for the car park is currently being completed by consultants and the council hope to tender this at the end of the month.
Meanwhile, the design and construction of the playground will be tendered by the end of November.
It is hoped to start the car park works in February and the playground in April or May 2024 but these time-frames are subject to change.
