Have your say on greenway

Improvements to the Passage Railway Greenway have taken a step in the right direction as people are being called on for their input.

The project aims to improve safety, increase use of the route, protect and improve biodiversity and improve access along the greenway.

Public consultation on Phase 2 of the Passage Railway Greenway Improvement Project, from Mahon towards Passage West, began on Monday. Cork City Council would like to hear the views of residents and greenway users on the route and carpark options being considered, as well as any other information residents and users would like reviewed when developing this project.

Several options are being examined to address the safety of the section that runs alongside the Rochestown Road including improving the existing route, moving the greenway to the coastline and moving the greenway to the south side of the Rochestown Road.

Options are also being examined to address car parking in the area.

Comments can be made in writing to the City Council or through the Cork City Council submission portal at consult.corkcity.ie where further details are accessible including contact details for the project team who are available for online or telephone consultation meetings.
