Further public consultation on proposed Buncrana to Carndonagh greenway
The consultation will involve in-person public events in Buncrana and Carndonagh following detailed assessment of seven route corridor options
A third non-statutory public consultation is taking place for the Buncrana to Carndonagh greenway project.
The consultation, which will involve in-person public consultation events in Buncrana and Carndonagh, is being held by Donegal County Council with the support of Transport Infrastructure Ireland.
Residents of the area, members of the public and other interested parties are being invited to take part.
The project is nearing the completion of phase 2, the option selection process.
In December 2023, the second non-statutory public consultation was held, and seven route corridor options were presented following the completion of the preliminary options assessment.
Donegal County Council says the options have been subject to a further detailed assessment in accordance with the TII project manager’s manual for greenway projects, TII Project appraisal guidelines and the Department of Transport’s transport appraisal framework, leading to the identification of the emerging preferred route corridor.
The public consultation events will take place in Inishowen Gateway Hotel, Railway Road, Buncrana, F93 PPH9 on Wednesday, November 13 from 2pm to 8pm and in the Carndonagh Public Services Centre, Malin Road, Carndonagh, F93 YV1N, on Thursday, November 14 from 2pm to 8pm.
Members of the project team will be available to discuss any queries or concerns regarding the project.
Public displays on the project will be available from Friday, November 15 until Thursday, November 28 at the Carndonagh Public Services Centre from 9am to 4.30pm, Monday to Friday and at the Buncrana Community Library, St Mary’s Road, Buncrana, F93 YK68, on Mondays and Saturdays from 10am to 2.30pm and Wednesdays and Fridays from 09:30am to 5.30pm.
