Fingal Coastal Way Non Statutory Public Consultation

Dúnta15 Aib, 2021, 9:00am - 27 Bea, 2021, 11:59pm

Primary tabs

Fingal County Council is in the process of developing plans for the Fingal Coastal Way, a high quality, safe, attractive and environmentally sympathetic coastal walking and cycling route linking Donabate, Rush, Loughshinny, Skerries and Balbriggan and the wider North Fingal area.

The proposed rural and urban greenway will encourage tourism and recreation while offering an attractive sustainable transport choice for residents and businesses, school children and commuters, bringing significant environmental, economic and health benefits to Fingal.

Currently the scheme is at the route selection stage. A number of potential route options will be published from the 15th April 2021 at online locations as set out in the table below and anyone with an interest in the scheme has an opportunity to give comments and feedback on the routes currently under consideration by Fingal County Council.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and public health restrictions on gatherings, we are not in a position to hold a traditional, in-person public consultation event during this round of public consultation. However, your feedback on the scheme is still very important to us and we would encourage you to take part in the process so that you can help us make the Fingal Coastal Way a flagship amenity in North County Dublin which will benefit the whole community.
