Public invited to have their say on latest Active Travel Network scheme
Published on 2nd November 2023
Dublin City Council would like to invite the public to have their say on plans for the Dodder Greenway - Donnybrook Road to Clonskeagh Road section. The scheme is one of the many projects being implemented as part of the City Council’s Active Travel Network.
Over the coming years, the Active Travel Network will grow from its existing 10km to a connected network of 310km across the city. This will enhance quality of life by improving access, connectivity and sustainable mobility for all, whilst reducing transport-related carbon emissions.
The Donnybrook Road to Clonskeagh Road scheme will contribute to an increase in walking, wheeling and cycling along 0.8km of the Dodder Greenway corridor.
The Dodder Greenway scheme will:
- Provide active travel facilities to cater for all ages and abilities along the Dodder River.
- Facilitate a more active lifestyle for all ages bringing multiple benefits for physical and mental wellbeing.
- Contribute to a reduction in transport emissions in line with the objectives of the Climate Action Plan by encouraging a modal shift to active travel use.
The non-statutory public consultation runs from Thursday 2nd November until Friday 8th December 2023, during this period copies of the proposed plans will be available for inspection at:
