Broadmeadow Greenway
Last week An Bord Pleanala approved plans for a new greenway in north Dublin.
Today Fingal County Council have announced more details.
Broadmeadow Greenway is set to link Malahide Castle to Newbridge House.
The 6km off-road walking and cycling greenway will run through parklands, farmlands and villages.
It will also include a bridge of 280 metres that will cross the Broadmeadow Estuary.
Malahide Castle
The Mayor of Fingal, Eoghan O’Brien, said, "This is great news for Malahide and Donabate coming as it does at a time when businesses in both towns are dealing with the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic."
"Linking two of our regional parks for walkers, joggers and cyclists will provide many opportunities and I welcome the Council’s commitment to commence construction in 2021."
"As a local councillor, this is something that I have pushed for many years and it is great to see it finally get the green light."
Newbridge House
The Broadmeadow Greenway is part of a bigger plan to eventually link Sutton to Balbriggan.
Part one, the Baldoyle to Portmarnock Greenway, is set to open next month with more announcements expected later this year.
