Riga 24:

'''Celbridge''' è una cittadina situata sulle rive del fiuem [[River Liffey]], nella contea di [[Kildare]], in [[Irlanda]]. Situata a 22 km da [[Dublino]] e facente parte della grande area metropolitana della capitale, ha una popolazione stimata di 18,934 anime.

In epoca recente Celbridge ha subito una rapida espansione, e la maggior parte dei servizi e delle attrazioni cittadine si trovano ancora raccolte lungo la sua strada principale.

<!--In recent years Celbridge has expanded dramatically, yet most of the towns services and amenities still centre around the single main street. Celbridge largely retains the character which seems to have been lost in many other towns within Dublin's [[commuter]] belt.-->

== Politica ==

<!--Celbridge isè locatedsituara within theall'interno [[Kildare North]] constituency which elects 3 TDs to the [[Dáil]]. This is set to increase to four due to the levels of population growth within the region.

Despite its size, and numerous proposals, the town does not have a town council, despite being the third largest town in the county (and larger than other towns which have town councils such as [[Leixlip]] and [[Athy]]). Government acts provide for town councils for towns with a population of greater than 7,500, which Celbridge exceeds twice over, yet little progress has been made. Due to the lack of a town council to address specific local issues the town has suffered. For example as it does not have a town council, a Development Plan is developed with considerably less detail and control than a Local Area Plan which town councils develop. The situation effectively means that Kildare County Council, based 20 km away, have full control over zoning land in the area, and this means that they can zone land without specific local knowledge of what is needed. Owing to this as well as other factors the town has been consumed by the [[Celtic Tiger]] fuelled [[urban sprawl]] of [[Dublin]], resulting in a fragmented community and a severe lack of sufficient amenities for the scale of the population.-->
