The Carlingford Lough Greenway has reopened to the public after a section of the coastline path was damaged by recent storm.

Louth County Council confirmed that a “temporary walkway” has been constructed close to the Carlingford Marina, which bypasses the section of coastline that was damaged by last week’s weather.

The local authority outlined that design works will commence shortly on the section of the coastline which has eroded.

A spokesman said: “Louth County Council would like to thank the public for their patience as this work was completed, the contractor for the swift construction of the temporary walkway, and private landowners for providing access.”
