Senator seeks clarity on timeline for Carrigart-Downings Walkway
Fine Gael Senator Manus Boyle asked for an update from the Department of Transport regarding the funding allocation, project progress and timeline for the remaining section
A Senator has sought clarity on the timeline for the completion of the Carrigart-Downings Walkway.
Donegal County Council intends to carry out an Outdoor Recreational Infrastructure Scheme along a 2.5km stretch of the existing R248 regional road to provide a 2.5m shared footpath for pedestrians and cyclists.
“This is an incredibly important piece of infrastructure for the community,” Senator Boyle said. “It provides a safe walking route for residents, families, schoolchildren, and visitors along what is both a busy and scenic stretch of road.
“The development of this path has already made a meaningful difference to safety and accessibility in the area and has been widely welcomed by all.”
