Dublin City Council plans to provide 4.3km of improved walking and cycling facilities along Ratoath Road and Cappagh Road. This scheme is currently at the Preliminary Design phase.

The Ratoath Road Active Travel Scheme will deliver 4.3km of protected cycle paths and improved pedestrian facilities linking the Navan Road to New Cross College on Cappagh Road via Ratoath Road. There will also be also a shared cycleway along Kilshane Road and Kilshane Drive connecting back to Ratoath Road.
