Dunkineely to host information event on N56 safety improvement scheme
Senator Manus Boyle welcomes ‘important step for Dunkineely’
Dunkineely Community Centre is to host a public information event on the N56 Dunkineely National School & Village Road Safety Improvement Scheme (RSIS) on Tuesday, 18 August from 2pm to 7pm.
Local residents, businesses, and interested members of the public have been invited by Donegal County Council to attend the event, which aims to inform the public of the road safety measures to be implemented and to invite feedback on the proposals.
Senator Manus Boyle said: “This is a very welcome and important step for Dunkineely.
“The N56 Dunkineely National School & Village Road Safety Improvement Scheme has the potential to make a real difference to the safety of our children, families and everyone who uses this road every day.
“I encourage everyone to attend the public consultation, have a look at the plans and share their views.”
The event will detail what Donegal County Council is seeking to implement a road safety improvement scheme in Dunkineely, which is currently in Phase 4 of planning.
Donegal County Council aims to mitigate identified collision risks, reconcile vehicle speeds, and create a forgiving road layout through the construction of raised tables and other road safety measures that prioritise the safety and accessibility of vulnerable road users along this section of the N56.
The plans will be available for inspection until 4pm on Tuesday, September 8.
