Public asked for their say on Buncrana to Bridgend and Newtown Greenway
Long-awaited project to build multi-million euro walking and cycling path takes step forward
Donegal County Council, with the support of Transport Infrastructure Ireland, invites residents of the area, members of the public, and all other interested parties to participate in the second non-statutory public consultation for the Bridgend to Buncrana and Newtowncunningham Greenway Project.
The project is currently at Phase 2, which involves the development and assessment of shortlisted route corridor options to determine a preferred option for the Greenway route. The options were identified following the feedback received from the first Public Consultation held in April 2024.
The purpose of this second public consultation is to inform the public of the option selection process and to invite feedback on the corridor options presented.
To facilitate this, two in-person public consultation events will take place in Buncrana and Burt as follows: Inishowen Gateway Hotel, Buncrana on Wednesday 14th May from 2pm until 8pm; and at An Grianan Hotel, Burt on Thursday 15th May at the same times, 2-8pm.
